Week 6: Case Study: Joe Falls Off a Ladder You are the HR Representative for a large warehouse. Employees are responsible for moving boxed products from shelves to shipping areas by using forklifts, hand trucks, or physically carrying the products. One of the employees, Joe, was recently injured in a car accident and just returned to work with a sore leg. He walks with a limp. Joe’s job involves climbing tall ladders to get products off of shelves and physically carrying them to the shipping areas. He does not know how to operate a forklift or a hand truck. Joe asks Manny, his manager, if he could switch duties with someone else because his leg “hurts”. Manny doesn’t particularly like Joe because he thinks he’s lazy. Manny tells Joe that he can’t switch him with anyone and for Joe to “just take it slow”. Joe climbs the ladder, reaches for a box of product, falls back, hits his head, and dies. ********************************* LAW: What law regulates this scenario and what specific safety standards apply to Joe’s job. Put everything into your own words (summarize, paraphrase) – Do not quote language from the law or standards. EMPLOYER ACTION: What steps under the law must the employer take once Joe falls from the ladder? (procedures, forms, investigation activities involved) CONSEQUENCES: What are the possible penalties/fines for the employer as a result of this accident? What are the possible consequences for Manny personally as a result of this accident? PREVENTION: What could and should the employer, and more specifically Supervisor Manny, have done to prevent this accident from occurring? Be sure to support your answers with evidence from course material and outside research along with logical reasoning and explanations. Please follow APA format.
