## Narrative

Employee tripped on the way from the employee parking lot to the plant.  It was dark, but the area was illuminated. A small piece of pallet board was in the area and the employee was walking on the stone surface rather than the paved area.  EE initially received no treatment, but late last week was then seen by ortho and had treatment and was sent for therapy.
