Final narrative
An employee was climbing an 18-foot extension ladder to perform welding tasks on top of a railcar. The employee needed to descend the ladder to make an adjustment to the boom arm and as he was descending the ladder, the ladder slid down and he struck the floor. He was admitted to the hospital with bilateral heel fractures and a compression fracture of the L-1 vertebra.
