Investigation Summary
Employees #1 and #2 were using an aerial lift to remove steel I-beams used as forms to pour concrete.

The lift was knocked over, and both employees remained in the basket as it fell. Employee #1 suffered a collapsed lung and broken ribs, and Employee #2 suffered a mild concussion. They were taken by ambulance to Washington County Hospital. Employee #2 was released after a CAT scan, and Employee #1 was admitted for treatment. Both employees were wearing safety harnesses at the time of the accident.
