EE was walking in the quarry and stepped on a small rock. The area was well lit and no hazardous conditions existed. EE did not think anything of it; so he kept working. At the end of his shift (approx 8 hours later) he noticed his ankle was swollen and told his supervisor. He told ee he needed to see a doctor. The office manager helped ee fill out the paperwork.
