Investigation Summary
At approximately 1:00 p.m., on January 28, 2008, Employee # 1, a 59-year-old Male of Graham Espie Construction was seriously injured when he lost his balance and jumped from a ladder. Employee #1 had climbed a ladder to hand off a window shutter to another worker who was standing on a second floor balcony. When Employee #1 handed the shutter off to the coworker, he lost control and attempted to prevent the shutter from falling so he let go of his grip briefly. He then attempted to grab the ladder rung but was unable to grab it so he jumped to the floor. Employee #1 was approximately eight-to-ten feet from the floor and he landed on both feet in the fall. When Employee #1 landed, both of his ankles were broken. Employee #1 was hospitalized from fractures. Employee #1 was a temporary laborer who was scheduled to perform approximately four hours of light labor and clean-up around the construction site.
