Investigation Summary
On August 10, 2011, five employees, all carpenters, were working on the deck of a two story apartment building that was under construction. All five worked for a subcontractor of the framing contractor. While working on the exposed second floor deck, 20 feet above grade, a weather front moved in with threatening skies, high winds and rain. In an attempt to hasten their exit from the exposed deck, the five employees panicked and climbed into a scrap box that was elevated to the decking surface by a rough terrain fork lift. The box was in place to receive debris and transport tools to the work level. Once inside the box, the wind or the unbalanced load caused it to tip and fall off of the elevated forks. All five employees landed on the dirt surface below and sustained unspecified injuries that required hospitalization.
