Narrative

On February 12, 2024, at 2:00 p.m., an employee and a co-worker were working from a swing stage scaffold. The employee was talking to the co-worker, who was above him, while standing on the pick board. He was holding a jackhammer. The jack hammer fell, causing both employees to fall. The co-worker was tied off, but the employee fell approximately 30 feet to the ground, resulting in an injury to his lower vertebrae.
