Narrative

Laborer was holding lower part of a pallet that separated from its top part and the laborer tried to position pallet so it would sit flat on pallet's stand. A forklift operator set pallet down before laborer moved hand away from pallet. Laborer's right index finger was pinched between pallet and pallet's stand. This caused a laceration to finger resulting in 2 stitches.
