Narrative

An employee was placing rigging hooks on a rebar mat to be lifted by a forklift. The rebar mat became stuck and when the employee went to free the mat, it suddenly came loose and pinched his left middle finger between two rebar mats, resulting in a crush injury and a laceration that required hospitalization.
