Investigation Summary
At approximately 8:30 a.m. on July 2, 2012, Employee #1 and a coworker were disassembling a 28 ft steel fixed ladder on a pumping unit (Number 293). The upper two bolts were not secured. The employees disconnected the lower two bolts and the middle bolt. Employee #1 was standing on the ground at the bottom of the steel ladder. Employee #1 wiggled the ladder to assist the coworker with removing the middle bolt. As the middle bolt was removed, the ladder fell and struck Employee #1's foot. He received fractures of the left second, third, fourth and fifth metatarsals. Employee #1 was transported to a medical center, where he received treatment and was then hospitalized.
