Narrative

After changing a roof drill bit on the starter steel, the EE had the steel resting on top of EE's right foot. As EE lowered the drill pot, the pot caught the drill steel as it was coming down and pushed the steel down on top of EE's right foot resulting in a fracture to the 2nd metatarsal. The employee was taken off work after being examined by specialist on 5/28/21.
