Narrative

An employee was removing lids from a yogurt cup filler while standing on a platform that was approximately 19 inches off the floor. After unloading the lids, she walked down the step leading up to the platform from floor level, lost her footing, and fell into a 24" high stand, breaking two right-side ribs and puncturing her right lung.
