## Narrative

An employee was using a chain come-a-long to align a bolt hole so he could insert a bolt to secure a concrete form. The employee was ratcheting the come-a-long with his right hand and was holding the bolt with his left hand. The concrete form moved, and the employee's left index finger was pinched between the form and the partially inserted bolt. The fingertip was amputated.
