## Narrative

A mechanic was stepping off the track of a D10 dozer onto some roll around steps placed next to the dozer when his foot slipped. He fell about 5' to the shop floor & extended his right arm to catch himself. This resulted in a right wrist sprain. He was taken to a doctor who put the wrist in a brace & allowed him to return to work. The brace made it MSHA reportable.
