Narrative

EE was moving a piece of plate steel to gain access to timber to place under load of new steel shipment. EE lifted the approximately 3' x 5' by 3/8 inch steel the long way and pushed over to the side 180 degrees. The steel plate hit an approximately 18"" high steel beam and kicked back striking the EE's heel causing EE's heel bone to break in hairline fractures
