Narrative

The employee was attempting to remove a broken Carbis cage, but it was stuck. EE kicked the cage to free it, resulting in an injury to right foot. Initially, the pain was not severe, and EE thought it would subside. On 04/03, EE reported to their supervisor that they would miss work due to the injury. EE later saw a doctor and found that they had fractured their 5th metatarsal.
