Narrative

An employee was working on a 2-foot-high grated platform, replacing a wire in a clutch assembly on the scanner. The employee fell off the platform and landed on his side on a threaded rod sticking out of the concrete that is used to secure the scanner into place. The rod contacted his chest area, resulting in four broken ribs and a partially punctured lung.
