Narrative

Our laborer was shoveling the walkway next to the conveyor belt in our secondary concrete tunnel. While EE was shoveling a fan attached to the tunnel ceiling which was over the conveyor belt came loose and swung down and contacted the laborer on the right side of the face. EE had a bruised cheek and a scratch. The fan was guarded 100% from moving parts.
