Narrative

An employee was replenishing trays of finished product using an order picker truck. As he was moving toward the end of a narrow aisle, his right index finger was pinched between the outside anchor bar/overhead guard and the bottom of the overhead crossover bars that connected and stabilized the racking in the aisle. He suffered a fracture and an amputation to the tip of the finger.
