ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER, HE LEFT THE WORK LOCATION WITH THE LEAD WORKER TO OBTAIN FIRST AID FOR HIS INJURY. THIS LEFT THE OTHER EMPLOYEE TO WORK ALONE. AS THE TWO EMPLOYEES REACHED THE FIRST AID KIT, THEY HEARD THE OTHER EMPLOYEE SCREAM. THEY WENT BACK TO THE TEST STATION TO FIND HER ON THE FLOOR. SHE HAD BEEN ELECTROCUTED. (NO DETAILS ON THE CAUSE OF THE TWO INJURIES WERE SUPPLIED.)
