The dredge operator was transferring from the Jon boat to the dredge. When EE stepped from the Jon boat to the step on the side of the dredge, EE lost footing due to heavy dew on the dredge. EE slipped and landed on the dredge landing on ribs. The slip caused 3 broken ribs to the operator. This accident was not caused by lack of training or lack of following regulations.
