## Narrative

An employee was monitoring a section of production between the trimmer and edger saws when he noticed boards were jamming on the overhead conveyor between the saws. He stepped up onto a sheet metal barrier that was 22 inches high and then slipped and fell. His face struck an electrical closure (junction box) that was near the ground, fracturing his jaw and requiring hospitalization.
