Employee Is Injured from Fall Through Platform

On September 30, 2002, Employee #1 was climbing down from an outrigger scaffold onto the platform of a tube and coupler scaffold, which was approximately 1.5 feet below the outrigger scaffold and had a partially-planked platform; the masons had removed some of the boards. As he dropped down to the platform, the planks (two boards) broke, and he fell through to the ground. Emergency services were contacted, and Employee #1 was transported by ambulance to a nearby hospital, where he was hospitalized and treated for a tear to the medial collateral ligament of his right knee and a fractured back.
