Narrative

An employee was standing on a porch that was 13 feet from the ground and was tying off to a hand rail when another employee from a different company took out the pin that stabilized the porch. The porch swayed, causing the employee to fall to the ground. The employee suffered a broken collarbone, four broken ribs, one lung bruise, and a head injury that required stitches.
