Employee Falls Into Manhole, Injures Back

On August 14, 2012, Employee #1, with Braddock Construction LLC, was installing manhole risers on manhole vaults with his foreman. Both of them began cleaning the area in preparation of installing the risers. There were two road signs with cones on them in the area. Employee #1 picked up a road sign to move it out of the way. When he did, he walked forward and fell 9 feet into a manhole vault. The road signs were covering the manholes. He was extracted from the manhole by local emergency response personnel and transported to the hospital, where he was treated for back injuries and released. He may need back surgery at a future date.
