Investigation Summary
At approximately 9:30 a.m. on February 6, 1997, Employee #1, age 17, and a coworker were helping to erect the steel skeleton for a warehouse. They were on top of the steel, installing bridging, when the food truck arrived at the site for the morning break. They attempted to slide down a 30 ft steel support column to reach the truck. The coworker slid down without any problem; however, Employee #1 lost his control or balance and fell, head first, onto the concrete floor. He suffered head injuries and was taken to a trauma center, where he was pronounced dead shortly after his arrival.
