Narrative

The EE was replacing poly screens. He was attempting to remove some of the pins. He swung the hammer, hit a piece of angle iron, the hammer bounced over and hit his left index finger causing a fracture. The EE's finger was bandaged with a splint, but is still able to perform his normal job (control room operator) with no restrictions.
