a newly hired laborer for the Dayton pit went to the pit supervisor and informed them that EE had hurt EEs wrist shoveling from the previous day. The employee said that EE was using a shovel to clean off a concrete pad that had build-up on it and the shovel lip caught crack in the concrete, which caused the shovel to stop moving abruptly, which is when EE said the pain occurred.
