Narrative

The employee used the platform ladder on the right shoe. They were unaware that it pivoted down. In the process of the ladder coming down, the employee was facing the ladder and the stop caused them to drop their knees into one of the steps on the ladder. The employee worked the rest of the shift, but was unable to return to work on 9-16-22, resulting in a Lost Time Incident.
