Construction Employee Crushed Against Trusses by Sky Climber

Employee #1 was working on a small electric Sky Climber lift 7 feet above ground level and directly beneath some roof trusses. The employee was installing electric wiring. As he bent over the control panel, his stomach hit the up switch, causing the lift to rise. This movement pinned him between the lift and the roof trusses. He was immobilized and unable to communicate due to the pressure. Employee #1 was crushed to death.
