Investigation Summary
On February 17, 2010, Employee #1 hooked and attached his 28 ft extension ladder to overhead communication cables, ascended the ladder, conducted his work. As Employee #1 began to descend the cable, tension slacked causing the ladder to slide abruptly on the cable enough to cause Employee #1 to loose his balance. Rather than risk falling backwards, Employee #1 jumped off the ladder on to the asphalt approximately 12 ft below, and suffered a broken right foot.
