## Narrative

An employee was about 10 feet up a ladder in a parking lot, preparing to run cable through a hole drilled in a wall. The ladder's feet lost traction on the wet concrete of the parking lot, and the ladder slid down the wall to the ground. The employee fell, suffering a laceration to his chin, two broken fingers on the left hand, a broken left elbow, a broken right arm and elbow, and broken teeth.
