At approximately 4:00 a.m. on March 4, 2011, an employee was working for Target Corp. at the employer's retail store in Cerritos, CA. On the day of the accident, Employee #1 was fishing two coaxial cables through a hole above the ceiling tiles in the store hallway. Employee #1 was standing on a six-foot fiberglass ladder positioned in the hallway near a time clock. As Employee #1 was preparing to descend the ladder, both he and the ladder fell to the floor.
