Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:44 a.m. on April 22, 2010, an employee was walking across the second floor of a former Filene's store that was in the demolition phase of being renovated. The employee fell through a hole in the floor, where duct work was recently removed. The hole was 2-ft 8-in. by 3-ft and the distance the employee fell was 16 ft 11 in. The employee was leaving the building to go to lunch and stepped onto a steel door that was lying across the hole, which slid out of place and caused the employee to fall. The employee was hospitalized and treated for a fractured hip.
