Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:46 a.m, on June 21, 2011, Employee #1 was assisting Employee #2 to move a granite slab to a cutting table at the West end of the fabrication shop. A section of an 800 pound slab (approx. 9.5 ft long, 5.5 ft wide, and 1 inch thick), which was suspended approximately 12 inches from the floor, broke free from the clamp device used to raise and support the slab. The force of the fall caused a second similar slab to fall away from the wall and towards both employees. Employees #1 and #2 attempted to support both slabs but they were too heavy. Employee #1 fell to his right side and onto his back where both slabs fell on top of his chest, lower body, and legs. Employee #2 had turned away from the slabs and was struck on his left ankle and right elbow. Emergency Medical Services were contacted, and the Contra Costa County Fire Department treated both employees. They were transported to John Muir Hospital, where Employee #1 was treated for internal injuries and released for out-patient care approximately 10:00 p.m. Employee 2 was later released for out-patient care with abrasions at approximately 2:00 p.m.
