Narrative

Employee was building a stopping. While trying to install the next concrete block in the wall above his head, he lost control of the block and it fell striking his right knee. PPE was not a factor, compliance rules/regs was a factor, mining equipment/system was not a factor, miner proficiency was a factor.
