Narrative

The employee was standing in front of a rock that was sitting on a 4x4 that was going to be placed on a pallet. To make it mobile, an employee was in the skid steer and attempted to get out of the machine without the parking brake in place. The machine moved, tipping the rock over on the injured employee's foot.
