Narrative

On March 28, 2018, at approximately 11:45 a.m., an employee was moving lumber down a green chain when a piece of lumber fell. The employee went down some stairs to retrieve it and while coming back up the stairs, he slipped and fell into the green chain. He put his left hand out to break his fall and it struck the green chain, breaking and lacerating his thumb. He was hospitalized and had surgery. The chain was not guarded at the time.
