Narrative

Employee (HEO) was walking backwards and tripped over the implement of EE's blade at ground level while conducting a pre-op on that equipment. Employee injured EE's neck and required possible medical treatment. The diagnosis is still outstanding due to lack of specialist care availability and a request to reclassify this injury may be made in the near future.
