Narrative

On March 5, 2025, a package handler was moving packages off a slide to a belt and was lifting a heavy, irregularly-shaped box when it shifted. The box came down on their right hand and pinched a finger against the slide. The employee sustained a partial amputation to the tip of the finger.
