Narrative

The employee was relocating an empty aluminum crate when the incident occurred. As he released the crate, the back of his middle finger came into contact with the aluminum ID tag. He received a minor cut on the back of middle right finger. It was determined by the ER doctor that three stitches were required because of the location of the cut to the first joint of the finger.
