Narrative

The employee struck EE's head against the mine roof. Contact with the roof caused EE's hard hat to come off which allowed EE's head to contact the roof. The EE was transported to hospital where EE was examined and treated for a laceration to the top of EE's head which required sutures to close. EE was released to return to work full duty.
