Narrative

The employee was adjusting the right hand arm rest forward in the CAT 990 Loader. Her hand slipped off of the arm rest causing her right hand to go forward and striking a control lever with her right hand ring finger. The employee developed a ganglion cyst on her knuckle which had to be surgically removed on 4/6/2012 making the accident reportable.
