Narrative

Employee was packing a pump using a mill bar to force the packing follower into place. The mill bar slipped and as he got his balance he rolled his ankle. He was instructed to wear a walking boot for about a week. I orginally tried to file this electronically on 12/28/04 but apparently failed because when I tried to close it out could not find accident.
