S Coal Company · Contact with hot objects or substances

MY LEGS WERE RESTING BETWEEN TWO PIECES OF METAL WHILE WORKING ON A BEARING. THE METAL WAS WARM, BUT NOT HOT TO THE TOUCH. BOTH LEGS ARE BURNED ON EACH CALF. THE BURNS ARE ABOUT THE SIZE OF A BASEBALL. I DID NOT NOTICE THE BURNS UNTIL I GOT HOME LATER THAT NIGHT. I REPORTED THE ACCIDENT TO MY SUPERVISOR THE NEXT MORNING.

March 2, 2005 IL · Coal laborer, blacksmith, bull gang, parts runner, roustabout, pick-up man, pitman HANDLING OF MATERIALS
S Coal Company · Over-exertion in lifting objects

The operator was shoveling under a belt line, the man claimed his back was sore and painful, he went to a doctor after the shift and told us about it the next day. He did not report to the supervisor at 5:00 PM same day. We are not sure he is hurt or faking it.
