Narrative

EE was driving a Genie Lift around a corner. As he pressed the lever to move forward, he pushed too hard and the lift basket jerked, causing ee to jerk front then back. His foot was in the foot-button device, and the jerk backwards strained his ankle. EE was initially on modified duty but then was placed off work on 2/11/10.
