Investigation Summary
At approximately 4:41 p.m. on June 3, 2012, Employee #1 was working as a supervisor for a retail grocery store. Employee #1 was a fulltime permanent employee of the grocery store. Employee #1 was checking an unauthorized open roof access door. Employee #1 climbed a fixed roof access ladder to check on the status of the door. The fixed ladder leading to the access door was attached to a wall. It was approximately 12 feet (3.7 meters) in length. Employee #1 was on the ladder at the time of the incident. When Employee #1 reached the top of the roof ladder, his arm bumped the bracket holding the access door open. This caused the holding bracket to become dislodged, thus allowing the access door to fall. The door struck Employee #1 on the head. He fell approximately 6 to 7 feet (1.8 to 2.1 meters), landing on top of a metal mop bucket. Employee #1 sustained a fractured scapula. The causal factors were that the spring and rod on the roof access door were missing, permitting the roof access door to fall freely. The employer reported the incident to the Division at 10:26 p.m. on June 3, 2012.
