Narrative

An employee was placing bungee cords on beef hides before they reach the side puller. As the employee was placing the bungee cord on the hides, her glove got stuck on the bungee cord hook. As the line progressed, the employee was pulled around the guardrail and to the ground, resulting in fractures to the right tibia and fibula.
