Narrative

EE was packing 50# bags of finished product at the Haver system. The bags were filled with light density material so EE pushed on the bags to help them convey to the palletizer. EE felt right shoulder soreness at the end of EE's shift. EE was seen by a doctor on 03/19/16 and placed on modified duties.
