Narrative

2 employees were changing troughing rollers on conveyor C1A located in the decline to the underground. The injured employee fell to the ground approximately 16 feet. The injured employee was wearing a fall protection harness and fall protection lanyard. Evidence suggest that the fall protection device was either not tied off or was improperly tied off.
