Narrative

After loading metals onto racks to be picked up by a crane for the anodizing process, an employee was standing idle when he was stuck by the control cab of the crane, which was about 4 feet above the ground. The cab of the crane pushed the employee into one of the support steel columns of the building, where he suffered a collapsed right lung and one broken rib. He was hospitalized.
