Narrative

Employee states: I was dusted out by backfill transfer raise and couldn't see anything. While trying to escape, I grabbed the ladder with both hands and tried to step, but slipped off and fell to platform below. Transported to NNRH ER & eval for lower back strain. Given 2 days restricted duty & told to return full duty 1/31.
