Narrative

Employee was putting a 100 # bag of product on a pallet when he slipped on loose material and strained his back. This happened prior to the Thanksgiving holiday and had hoped a couple of days rest would take care of it. When he returned on Monday after being off for 4 days he still had some pain. I sent him to the Dr. who thinks it is a strain and we have put him on light duty.
