Narrative

An employee was working from an 8-foot A-frame ladder, removing braces holding ductwork. As the employee removed a brace on one side, the brace on the other side failed and the ductwork swung down. It struck the ladder, which fell over. The employee fell with the ladder and suffered a broken wrist and upper arm.
