Narrative

Two employees were working on a roof that was approximately 18 feet above the lower level. The downspout for the grain bin (from a leg) was clogged and was removed by the two employees. While cleaning it, the injured employee slid off the roof and landed on their feet, fracturing their left ankle. Fall protection was not worn at the time.
