Narrative

The employee was operating a scoop underground and was articulating the machine when he placed his hand between the door and the frame. The tire of the machine hit the door and pinched his finger between the two. This caused a laceration to his right little finger which required sutures. The employee returned to his regular job. MSHA reportable.
