Narrative

A Process Mill employee was assisting in disassembling a valve. His hand slipped off the body of the valve and was pinched between the body of the valve and the cage. His 3rd finger on his left hand was cut. He was seen at the ER and in order to minimize the chances of infection, was placed on restricted duty, unable to use the hand.
