Narrative

A temporary employee was re-securing temporary hand rails that had been removed from the second floor balcony during work activities. He was using a cordless drill to install screws into the building structure when the railing gave way and he fell approximately 11 feet from the balcony to the ground. He landed on his feet and broke both heels.
