Employee was tied with a harness off of a monkey face welded to an I-Beam, the weld broke free allowing him to fall 8 feet to the ground. His head struck the ground cutting the back of his head. PPE was not a factor, compliance rules/regs was a factor, mining equipment/systems was not a factor, miner proficiency was a factor.
