Narrative

A material handler from Remedy Intelligent Staffing was using a forklift to load 95-pound rectangular tubing (4 feet long, 4 inches high, and 6 inches wide) onto a cantilever rack. He got off of the forklift to push the metal tubes onto the rack when one of the tubes fell between the cantilever arms and his right middle finger, causing the amputation of the fingertip.
