Nevada Revised Statute 618.375(1):  Duties of employers.  The employer
failed to furnish
employment and a place of employment which was free from recognized
hazards that were
causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to his employees:
The controlling employer did not furnish employment and a place of
employment which are free
from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or
serious physical harm
to his employees as follows:
a.At the Elvis Cirque Du Soleil Theater, a factory worker was severely
injured
when he fell 27 feet from the top of a theater stage into a stage lift
shaft.  The
C5 stage lift, had been lowered to the basement in order to place show
elements
on it.  The employer did not ensure that the procedure used by occupants
of the
theater adequately addressed protecting employees from falling into open
stage lift
shafts.
One feasible means of abatement, among others, is to ensure that the
current procedure for
clearing and moving show elements is updated to include methods to protect
employees from
falling into open stage lift shafts.
