## Narrative

EE was stacking empty wood pallets by hand. The pallets were wet. A pallet slid off the top of the stack and hit his right lower leg just above the boot. The leg was not treated until 3/2/10 when he noticed black and blue at his ankle. We sent him to the company doctor to get it checked out. He was allowed to return to work with no restrictions.
