Narrative

Employee was hanging a block curtain by the feeder on the 3rd step of a 6 foot ladder. A service truck was backing up towards the feeder to drop off a spool of co cable and backed into the ladder knocking the ladder and employee to the ground. This resulted in a strain at the time of the incident and now the employee is receiving medical attention.
