Narrative

An assay lab employee was carrying samples to place them in the drying oven. While walking around a pallet, the employee caught the corner of the pallet with their foot causing them to stumble and fall onto the floor grating on the same level. The resulting fall caused a cut on the employee's knee where it struck the grating.
