At 8:30 a.m. on October 28, 2020, Employee #1, a painter and supervisor employed by a painting contractor, was working at a residential exterior painting site. He was standing on a six-foot aluminum ladder to apply tape around the window edges before painting. While working, the painter fell off the ladder.
