Investigation Summary
At approximately 3:00 p.m. on February 19, 2013, Employee #1, with Warrior Manufacturing, was found unresponsive at his welding station. According to a coworker, Employee #1 was working at a welding station in the shop area near the production office performing tack welding on carbon steel parts. The amount of welding performed by victim on a daily basis could be anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours according to the Production Manager. It was estimated that Employee #1 performed actual tack welding duties on February 19, 2013 for approximately one hour (broken out over 15-to-20 minute periods for four times that day). Employee #1 had just returned from a break (which was from 2:30-to-2:40 p.m.) when a coworker stated that he saw Employee #1 laying unresponsive underneath the welding layout table at his station. Several coworkers summoned Emergency Medical Services and CPR was performed on Employee #1 until the emergency response personnel responded to the scene. Due to the findings during the investigation, interviews and the initial information received from medical coroner, all evidence suggests that this fatality was due to natural causes.
