EE was climbing an 8ft. ladder when the ladder slid downward and his left leg fell through the ladder and landed on the ladder with his left leg underneath the ladder step. This accident was not reported to the shift supervisor at the time it happened, it was not until the 8th of May in the morning when he stepped on a rock that he asked to leave work to go to the clinic.
