Narrative

An employee was assessing damage to an electrical box while on top of a roll of paper that was held by the clamp arms of a forklift. The employee was pulling wire on the junction box while elevated but came in contact with a live wire and received an electric shock, which caused the employee to fall 20 feet to the ground and sustain a fractured leg, a broken pelvis, and a broken right eye socket.
