## Narrative

Employee claims EE leaned across the bottom drill to fuel it and felt a pop in EE's stomach. EE said EE thought EE had pulled a muscle. EE did not properly report it to management. EE went to the doctors on EE's own volition. EE admitted to being seen prior to our employ for stomach issues. We question this claim and are actively investigating it.
