Narrative

Employee was stretchwrapping double stacked 1000lb super sacks. The top sack slipped off of the turn table bumping the employee into the control panel. He thought it was ok and finished the shift. The next day he experienced pain while breathing and coughed up blood. He went to the ER and was given an off work slip because of a bruised lung.
