## Narrative

An employee was on top of a concrete pile looking inside the grout box to ensure there was enough concrete against the existing header. He had placed his hand on a concrete plow cable to brace himself when the operator moved the equipment, causing the cable to move and catch the employee's hand between the concrete and the cable. His left pinky finger was nearly severed.
