## Narrative

On June 20, 2023, an employee was working on a 1,150-pound part that was partially suspended by a crane. The tool was laid on its side so the employee could weld a part and adjust the wood dunnage underneath that was supporting it. The part was bumped, causing the lifting eye to shift and pinch the employee's finger between the dunnage and part. The employee's left index finger was amputated at the first knuckle.
