Narrative

An employee was carrying plastic wrappers across the harvest floor when his glasses became fogged and impaired his vision. He tripped over the corner of a pallet and fell to the ground, striking his head on a conveyor shield (framework for a conveyor belt). He sustained pain to the head, neck, face, bilateral upper extremities and lower back, as well as weakness and facial lacerations.
