Narrative

On Nov. 28 as EE pulled the ball mill chute back he felt a pain in his right shoulder. He said it was minor and he did not need to see a doctor. It was treated as a first aid. He kept management aware that it continued to bother him and he asked to/and saw a Dr. on Dec. 14th. He is now on light duty and has been referred to/and seen by a specialist and an MRI is scheduled.
