Abstract: At approximately 1:00 p.m. on December 29, 1990, Employee #1, a motel maid, was carrying dirty linen across an open yard to a garage laundry. About 200 ft from the motel units, she slipped on the icy ground, fell backward, and stiff-armed the ground. She fractured her left elbow and suffered a slight concussion. Covered walkways with safe footing were available, but Employee #1 had made a habit of cutting across the yard. She had not received instruction or training regarding the issue. The employer was cited for a violation of T8CCR 3203.
