Emergency room Made Nov 5, 2020, sent to the company Dec 3, 2020, published by CPSC Dec 17, 2020
The product, in the report: Milwaukee tool backpack Model #48-22-8200. it is a back pack for carrying tools. it has a very hard plastic bottom and looks like a regular backpack with tool storage inside.
On August 28th 2020 I went to work as normal. My job duty for that day was to install air purifiers in rooftop units at the [REDACTED] in Galena Kansas. I got to the job site set my ladder up and tied it off. I went back down the ladder put on my Milwaukee tool bag backpack ,Model #48-22-8200, and grab the air purifier . I went back up the ladder and stepped down onto the slick white rubber roof. I immediately fell straight backwards. I would have landed flat on my back and not received any injuries, but I was wearing the backpack. The backpack has a very hard plastic bottom. The result for me falling backwards and landing on to the backpack was fracturing my L1 vertebrae. I fully believe that if I was not wearing that backpack I would not have been injured. The backpack does not have any warnings whatsoever about injuries may occur. It is actually advertised as impact-resistant bottom. If the product came with a warning i would not have wore it in a condition were a far could happen.
