Narrative

Employee had to restack liners because the original pallet was damaged and needed to be replaced on another pallet, an extra task that can be avoided if the original pallets are better managed. When moving the concave liners from a damaged pallet, one of the liners shifted and crushed a finger, causing an open tuft fracture of right index finger with nail damage.
