Event description

Employee is killed in fall through skylight to concrete floo

Investigation abstract

At 5:00 p.m. on November 20, 2023, employees were removing old roofing materials (roofing tar and stone) from a metal flat roof and dumping the materials into wheelbarrows off the sides of the building. Dome-type skylights, which measured 4-feet wide by 7-feet long were located throughout the roof, which measured approximately 200-feet by 175-feet. An employee stepped onto a skylight dome and fell through the skylight onto the concrete warehouse floor below. The employee struck his head on the concrete surface and died from his injuries.
