An oiler was on his usual rounds when the internal telephone system sounded. He quickly proceeded towards the engine control room to answer the call. As he stepped on the insulation mat in front of the main air compressor breaker panel, the mat slipped under his foot and he fell. This caused the oiler to dislocate his shoulder. The company carried out an investigation into the incident and has since removed the mat from service, as the underside of the mat was worn out and does not have a proper grip. All the other mats have been checked for their grip and wear.
