## Narrative

An employee was preparing to install a grain leg cover. The employee was standing on a removeable boot pit cover, which was partially open because a sump hose was in place to remove water from the pit. The cover shifted and the employee fell to a lower level, striking a piece of equipment. The employee was hospitalized with a broken hip and a laceration to their head, which required staples.
