Narrative

An employee was opening a manual gate on the property. The gate reached the end of the track and fell off the rail. The employee then went to lift the panel back onto the track and the tip of their left thumb was pinched between the rail and the roller resulting in amputation of soft tissue from the top of the thumb.
