Narrative

The employee was getting on and off a dozer to check each truck. He didn't take the proper time required to clean the mud off of the steps. He stepped off the last step and slipped, cutting his right shin (this was on the 18th, basic first aid was done by the employee). After five days he suspected an infection, we sent him in to check it out, and antibiotics were admistered.
