Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was installing stop and limit switch bars on a two-car personnel and material hoist system at the 12th-floor level of the hoist tower. Two other employees were assisting with the process and were on top of one of the cars at ground level. As the car at ground level began to ascend, the counterbalance struck the employee causing him to fall from the hoist tower. He struck the next lower level and was killed.
