Narrative

The employee was operating a bulldozer, cleaning up the quarry floor. He was backing up when the rear of the dozer slid over a 5' bank, upsetting the dozer - it came to rest on its left side. The employee suffered a fracture to the third (ring) finger on his left hand. The physician treated the fracture with a splint. The employee was released to normal duty.
