## Narrative

Two employees were in an elevated aerial lift and had just finished installing a sign onto a warehouse building. As the lift swung away from the building, it contacted overhead power lines that were 45 feet away from the base of the lift. One employee experienced electrical shock and burns to 27% of his body (arms, hands and back) and was hospitalized. The second employee was treated and released.
