Investigation Summary
A crew was laying a roof deck and insulation. The crew had laid three sheets of decking out beyond the leading edge to be used as a work platform to assist in rolling out the insulation. On the day of the accident the winds were extremely high. There were two workers on this make-shift platform on the day and at the time of the accident. Employee #1 was going to step across from the platform to the deck to assist with stretching and securing the insulation. As he was stepping across, he fell 27 feet to the pavement and was killed. Employee #1 was not wearing his personal fall arrest system and there was no other fall protection system available.
