Narrative

Employee was extending the ventilating curtain in the working face. He was reaching upward to attach the line curtain to a curtain hanger that was attached to a roof bolt that was through a pizza pan. As he hung the curtain on the hanger, the back side of his left ring finger came in contact with the hanger causing a laceration to the finger requiring 5 sutures to close.
