Narrative

An employee was preparing to pour concrete. A barricade for the swing radius was set up behind and to the right of the drilling rig. The employee began drilling and swung the equipment to the left to begin the spoil pile. The back of the equipment swung to the right, struck the employee, and pinned him against the fall protection cage. The employee sustained fractures to their ribs and an injury to the transverse process of a vertebra.
