Investigation Summary
At 8:45 a.m. on July 23, 2013, an employee was assisting two other coworkers in erecting a formwork that formed an outside corner of a basement. The employee was climbing a section in order to clamp the form together while one of the coworkers worked on the opposite side of the formwork with an extension ladder resting against one of the panels. The coworker pushed on the wooden form to align it with the MEVA panel in order to create a smooth service. The formwork began rotating counterclockwise and fell over trapping the employee underneath it. The second coworker pulled on the formwork that was suspended by an excavator to allow the employee to escape from where he was being held by two pieces of formwork. The employee was crushed when the formwork continued its spin and fell completely on top of the employee.
