Narrative

A temporary employee was attempting to place an empty bin under a shredder. The bin was not in alignment so two co-workers pushed the bin forward while the injured employee guided it through. The injured employee's right thumb was pinched between the bin and the shredder frame. The employee was hospitalized for an open fracture of the right thumb.
