Narrative

Employee alleged that his eyes were flashed burned, the accident was not reported to the company. I found out today 10/21/2005 that he went to the doctor. The only reason I found out was we received a medical bill. The employee returned to full duty the next scheduled shift. He was given antibiotics for his eyes.
