Narrative

While installing the #8 Support shaft, the safety holdback rigging was in place and not utilized. This allowed the support shaft to slip and pinch the employee's calf between the shaft and shaft support wheels. Communication between the crew and foreman was poor. Crew complacency decreased awareness
