Narrative

An employee had climbed an 8-foot A-frame ladder to reach a ceiling to replace a section of copper pipe. He placed plywood above the t-grid ceiling framing, and was above the ceiling when he tripped on a junction box, and fell approximately 9 feet, landing on the concrete floor. The employee suffered fractures to the tibia, fibula, and ankle, and a dislocated left foot.
