Narrative

During the task of bolting, the operator had to hold the head of the bolt to stabilize it while the bolt driver was being positioned. When the driver head contacted the bolt and was pushed into position the employee's left index finger became caught between the bolt head and the plate resulting in a laceration to the inside of the left index finger.
