Narrative

An employee was troubleshooting a garage door. The door was in its closed position, but still had about an inch of travel when the manual release was triggered. Their right ring finger pad (distal phalanx) was pinched between a belt and pulley. The employee required medical amputation of the finger pad without loss of bone.
