SLIP OR FALL OF PERSON
Eagle Granite Co Inc dba Beaverdam Qrry · Fall onto or against objects
Crane hook caught employee's shirt causing them to trip and fall. When they fell, leg hit outrigger. EE didn't go to the doctor until Monday, April 2, 2018 due to the fact they were hoping it would get better over time, but it actually became more sore and agitated as EE continued to be active on the leg. Hence the reason for the delay in seeking medical attention.
