Narrative

Employee was standing in and working concrete on an 85x85' pad. The pour amount became excessive and concrete entered the top of his knee-high rubber boots. Employee washed the exposed area but apparently not well enough to prevent chemical burns from the concrete onto both his lower legs from occurring hours later.
