Narrative

When cleaning the first floor of the prep plant with a water hose she felt pain and numbness in both wrists. Also after completing the task she had a hard time gripping with both hands. Medical information from Workers Comp. does not support employee's claim. The company does not believe it to be work related. Under protest and ordered by MSHA the company is completing a report.
