Narrative

Employee was helping to build a block wall. The wall did not get wedged in as they were building the wall. The wall fell over as he stumbled backwards he tripped over the block that was used in building the wall, supposedly striking head on ground. PPE was not a factor, mining equipment/system was not a factor, compliance rules/regs was a factor, miner proficiency was a factor.
