Investigation Summary
At 8:45 a.m. on July 26, 2005, Employee #1, an electrician's helper who had worked for Triple C Electric, Inc. two weeks, was tracing and removing an electrical conduit from above the ceiling space, while standing on the step below the topcap of a Werner stepladder. The ceiling panel was located 9 feet from the floor and the topcap of stepladder was 68.5 inches from the floor. Employee #1 was reaching overhead and pulling the conduit out of the ceiling, when the stepladder tipped over to the side, and Employee #1 fell to the concrete floor, resulting in a compound fracture to his left forearm. He was transported to Glendale Adventist Hospital, where he was hospitalized for 4 days.
