Narrative

Employee was using a wheelbarrow with a reasonable load but it was on a slight slope and it gained momentum and they were holding onto the handle as it rolled into an outer equipment guard. Employee was wearing leather gloves but, the weight/momentum combined with hitting that metal guard cover caused two fingernails on left hand to be removed after it was smashed in between.
