At 3:45 p.m. on June 17, 2021, Employee #1 was standing on an elevated platform placing a piece of tape onto a conveyor belt to visualize where the belt was getting stuck. The platform was equipped with a built-in fixed ladder. After placing the tape, it is unknown whether the employee had begun descending the ladder or was still on the platform before falling to the ground. The employee sustained a right midfoot fracture dislocation and left intraarticular distal tibia and fibula fractures. Emergency services transported the employee to the hospital, where he was admitted and treated.
