Narrative

A temporary employee was setting up a deck panel form. The temporary employee was working with two other employees to make the rebar cage fit in order to close the mold for production. A chain was used to pull or keep the cage in place. A short metal form wall fell and pinned the temporary employee's leg/ankle against the form base. He sustained a broken right fibula.
