Investigation Summary
On June 10, 2010, Employee #1, along with coworker #1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 were on site to do construction work to the interior of a building. They were working on a construction of a new, handicapped building entrance, construction of a new foyer, and construction of a common bathroom area. Employee #1 along with Coworkers #1 and 3 were working on the common bathroom area. Each employee was working independently on different sections of the bathroom. The bathroom was framed in at this point, with some sheet rock already installed. They were continuing installation of sheetrock. Coworker #1 was working near the outside windows (west), Employee #1 was working in the opposite side of the bathroom (east), on the upper, more intricate pieces of the wall, and Coworker #3 was working on the top of a utility closet in the bathroom (central section of bathroom). Each one could see the other one working. Employee #1 was utilizing a step ladder to reach the higher portions of the bathroom. The heights were greater than 10 ft. The step ladder being used was a Husky (Model 01-41200-00) 12 ft. fiberglass step ladder. The step ladder was propped up against the wall near the corner so Employee #1 could reach the upper corner to finish the pieces surrounding the existing structural steel of the building. Employee #1 was not utilizing the step ladder in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations (located on a sticker on the ladder). Employee #1 remained in the common bathroom area, working, while Coworker #1, 2, 3 and 4 took their lunch breaks at approximately the same time, between 11:00 AM and 12:00 PM. Shortly after Coworkers #1, 2, 3 and 4 returned from break, Coworker #5 returned from running errands. Coworker #5 questioned the employees as to the whereabouts of Employee #1. Coworker #3 went to the last known working location of Employee #1, the bathroom, and found him lying lifeless at the base of the step ladder he was using. Coworker #3 immediately ran out to the other employees, and called 911. The Minneapolis Police and EMS arrived at the scene. Employee #1 was treated by the EMS, and later pronounced DOA.
