December 6, 2018 GA · Metal/Non-Metal ledgeman/hand, quarry man HANDLING OF MATERIALS
Greene County Quarries, Inc. · Over-exertion in pulling or pushing objects

Employee was pulling & hooking up the dogs & twisted wrong. Employee did not go to doctor until 12/20/2018 due to the fact that they were hoping their back would get to feeling better, but it stayed a constant pain. Hence, the reason for the delay in seeking medical attention.
