## Narrative

This employee had a gang box lid fall and it caused a laceration. on 3/4/05. The Employee did not report this to the company, and went on days off. When he returned to work we were told by him that  he went and got stitches. This made this accident reportable. We were not notifed for 4 days and there was a break down in reporting that is the reason for this being subbmitted late
