Abstract: On September 16, 2010, an employee was working as a part-time, noncontract food service worker for a food service management company. The employee had worked at the same location for the previous management company, although the employer for which she was working at the time of the incident had only held the management contract for two weeks. The employee was pushing a small cart with drinks on it, when one of the cart's wheels caught on a rug. The cart suddenly stopped, and this caused the employee to lose her balance and fall, fracturing her hip. She was hospitalized.
