Employee falls from decking and incurs concussion and head l

At 2:45 p.m. on September 13, 2017, Employee #1 and Coworker #1, employed by a construction company, were engaged in leading edge work at a multiemployer construction project, a two-story structure. They were installing metal decking and had just completed welding activities. As they handed down the welding leads to ground level, Employee #1 stepped on the corner of an unsecured extra piece of metal decking and fell to the concrete floor below, a fall height of 13 feet 4 inches. Emergency services were called, and Employee #1 was transported to the hospital. He was admitted and treated for a concussion, a head laceration that required staples, shoulder abrasions, and contusions.
