Narrative

An employee was using a 60-ton overhead crane equipped with an industrial lifting magnet, to move a flex pan top deck toward his welding area. He was operating the crane controls with his right hand while guiding the load to his work table/bench to set the load down and adjust the magnet. The top deck pinched the employee's left index finger against the work table/bench. The employee sustained an open fracture to the fingertip above the first knuckle. Surgical amputation was required and included loss of bone.
