Narrative

Employee error. Employee slipped off bumper stepping from 330L excavator track to bumper on fuel truck. This led to the sprain of the left knee, which later turned out to be damage to the meniscus of that same knee. This was not originally an MSHA reportable case, but became one later on when he needed surgery in mid April.
