Narrative

EE was working with a Journeyman who was working on a lift. EE knew the lift was to be moved shortly and saw a metal pipe in the way. EE decided to move it. It was wet and heavy and it slipped while lifting and hit EE in EE's arm causing a slight fracture in forearm near EE's right wrist.
