Employee Injured in Fall from Ladder

At approximately 9:35 a.m. on April 26, 2005, Employee #1 was using a jigsaw to remove an elbow section of pipe that was wrapped with asbestos containing insulation. Employee #1 had climbed an 8-ft Werner portable fiberglass ladder to get on top of a duct that was 10 ft above the ground. As Employee #1 was climbing down the ladder, he lost his footing and fell off of the ladder from approximately 6.5 feet and hit the ground. Employee #1 called out to a coworker to help him. The paramedics arrived and transported Employee #1 to Sharp Memorial hospital where he was hospitalized for observation.
