Narrative

An employee was getting out of a dump truck and facing the truck with three points of contact. As he stepped onto the slip-resistant tread, his foot slipped off and he fell backwards, striking his head on the step of a backhoe that was parked next to him. He suffered a head laceration and lost consciousness.
