Investigation Summary
On May 9, 2013, Employee #1, an insurance claim adjuster of Eagle Adjusting Services Inc., was performing the routine task of assessing a claim from the owner of an automobile body shop. Needing to access the roof and after determining his ladder was not tall enough, he observed a contractor doing siding work at the building next door and asked to borrow one of their ladders. The contractor agreed and carried the ladder over and set it up against the wall. The top of the ladder rails were placed against the exterior wall below the roof line rather than extending the required three feet above. As Employee #1 was attempting to climb down, he missed the top rung and fell head first 18 feet to concrete.
