Investigation Summary
At approximately 12:20 p.m. on September 24, 2012, Employee #1, a journey-level carpenter/framer, was working on a building under construction. He was removing excess building material and traveling from truss to truss. As he walked along a truss, he lost his balance and stepped on the spacers or braces between trusses. The spacer or brace broke under his weight, which caused him to fall and struck a dirt ground. The height of his fall was approximately 11 ft. Employee #1 was not wearing fall protection. His employer provides fall protection and training; however, did not require its use at heights below 15 ft. In the fall, Employee #1 sustained multiple fractures. He was transported to a medical center, where he underwent surgical procedures and was hospitalized for postoperative care.
