Employee Fractures Feet in Fall from Elevator Shaft

On July 29, 2011, Employee #1 was working as a foreman of a fireproofing crew that was applying fireproofing material to an elevator shaft. The employer is a commercial interior and exterior wall system subcontractor. As Employee #1 was spraying fireproofing material onto a column at the corner of the elevator shaft, approximately 20 feet above the building's main level, he slipped and fell. Employee #1 shattered multiple bones in both his feet, which he was hospitalized and treated for at a nearby medical facility. The accident investigation revealed that the elevator shaft was unguarded and Employee #1 failed to use any fall protective equipment.
