Narrative

EE was filling super sacks with product in the packaging plant. As the super sack was going down the conveyor, EE noticed the sack was leaning. EE stopped and tried to push back on the sack and felt a pop in EE's left knee so EE was taken to ER. EE can't get into a Dr. to be released due to COVID-19 policies so EE has missed too many days of work.
