Narrative

Employee was opening the gate to the yard. A bolt is inserted into a bracket to ensure the gate stays open. As the employee pulled the gate to the bracket, his left index finger was pinched between the gate and the bracket. A cut on the finger required stitches to close the wound. The employee was released for regular duty and returned to work the same shift with no impairment.
