Narrative

Two employees were working together taking concrete forms down and cleaning and stacking them. One employee was using a hammer to remove the concrete from the form and the injured employee thought he was done, grabbed the form and was hit on the pinky finger. The employee did not see his hand there until it was too late. It broke his pinky finger.
