Narrative

On April 30, 2022, an employee was removing a finished roll of film from the shaft of a winder. As the employee manually pulled the 80-pound roll, his right ring finger was pinched between the cardboard core of the roll and an indention from a missing shaft plug on the steel shaft. The employee sustained an amputation to the right ring finger that included the fingernail.
