Incident on May 28, 2017: Employee falls from roof and sustains fractured vertebra
At 5:00 p.m. on May 28, 2017, Employee #1 was using a pneumatic nail gun to fasten shingles to a second story roof, which was 20 feet off the ground. The employee was wearing a safety harness, but it was not tight. As the employee moved across the roof to retrieve additional shingles from another area of the roof, it had begun to rain, causing the roof surface to become slick. Employee #1 lost his footing and fell from the roof to the first level of the home. He sustained multiple injuries that included a fractured vertebra and was hospitalized.
