Narrative

Employee was setting up the bulk bagger on a bin with a co-worker who was above lowering a power cord to be plugged in. The cord hit the employee's hard hat; a chunk of dust slid off his had and into his right eye. He flushed out his eye but it was still irritated so he sought medical attention.
