Tri-Con Materials, Inc. · Over-exertion in pulling or pushing objects

EE was prying up on the bar to center the belt. The significant leveraging caused a strain. We are still awaiting the MRI to see about an actual injury.

The miner was descending properly from loader to take a break. Turned around to start to come down from loader and fell backwards. Landed primarily on feet, causing both to be sprained. Also sprained left wrist falling back on it. Also hit head on shuttle vehicle below. Had hard hat on, so only had minor concussion.
