Narrative

A crew was using a chain fall system to rig up a hard stop (metal structural support weighing 695 lbs.). The injured employee was guiding it into position. The hard stop shifted and their right hand was caught between the suspended hard stop and the adjacent structural wall, resulting in fractured ring and little fingers.
