Narrative

Employee was installing metal floor decking material. While installing a plate using a pry bar, the bar slipped striking the employee on his left cheek bone. The impact caused a small laceration. Sutures were used to close the wound for cosmetic reasons instead of butterfly closures due to location on face, heat conditions and cleanliness.
