Boeing Fire and Everett Medics were called to a building at the Everett Boeing Plant this afternoon for a report of a worker who had been seriously injured. Boeing Fire and Everett Medics treated the man and then transported him to Harborview. Boeing Everett Spokeswoman Elizabeth Fischtziur provided this press release…
An industrial accident occurred at the Everett site involving a contracted employee.
Boeing’s emergency medical team responded and administered aid until the local municipal paramedics arrived. The individual was then transported to Harborview Medical for further treatment.
The employee works for Penhall, a subcontractor of Schuchart.
We are not providing the name of the employee.
Boeing cares about the safety and well being of all our employees and contractors who work in our industrial areas. Boeing is investigating the cause of this accident and will implement the necessary changes to ensure it is not repeated.
My Everett News partner, The Seattle Times, has been in contact with the Subcontractor and Harborview Hospital but so far there is no other information.
