Investigation Summary
On September 2, 2005, Employee #1, a construction laborer, was using a 10-ft-louisville step ladder for access to a one story residential roof. Employee #1 placed the ladder against the wall, and ascended the ladder to the top cap, reached over with left hand to brace against the 2-ft by 6-ft wood rafter. The rafter gave way causing Employee #1 to fall approximately 10 ft to construction material/debris below. Employee #1 was hospitalized and treated for a neck fracture, two fractured ribs, wrist, and a collapsed lung. The step ladder spreader was not open and locked in place.
