Narrative

On September 1, 2022, an employee was standing in a wooden box that was sitting on top of a pallet. The employee was attempting to slide a motor that was in a cardboard box over approximately 6-8 inches to a metal motor build table. The hole in the side of the cardboard box that is used as a handle ripped when the employee attempted to slide the box, causing the employee to loose their footing and fall on their left arm. The employee suffered an arm fracture that required hospitalization.
