Narrative

EE was repairing spacer and pinched right middle fingertip between edge of spacer and partition during reassembly. The weight of the screens increased the employee fatigue while assisting with the task. Additionally, the design of the spacer doesn't provide a lot of space for hand placement when inserting.
