Roofing Contractor Employee Is Killed in Fall from Roof

On December 2, 2006, Employee #1 was on his first day on the job, working for a roofing, siding, and sheet metal contractor. He was installing a roof ending intended to prevent the formation of ice dams. Although a harness, a lanyard, and a rope were available on the roof, Employee #1 was not wearing the harness and lanyard. No slide guards had been installed along the lower leading edge of the roof adjacent to the eaves, either. Employee #1 lost his footing and slipped off the roof from a height of 34 feet. He landed head first on the ground, and he was killed, due to a head concussion.
