Narrative

EE was attempting to put an insulator on an anode which was about 4"" off the ground. As the EE went to hammer the insulator it caused the opposite side of the steer horn to come off the strongback. This resulted in the employee's hand being pinched between the strongback hook and the steer horn. EE was seen at ER and GHR clinic and was released back to work with restrictions.
