Investigation Summary
On December 25, 2010, an employee was working for a firm that fabricated structural steel products. He was helping to load a 12-ton steel girder approximately 30 feet long onto a truck bed. The employee had unhooked the dog hooks, and he was descending a ladder when the load shifted. The load hit the ladder the employee was on, causing him to fall off. He fell approximately 10 to 12 feet to the ground. He sustained a puncture wound, and he was killed.
