## Narrative

Two employees were sliding a 200-pound steel mounting plate off a worktable onto the forks of a forklift. They slid the plate until it was half on the table and half on the forklift, and were making an adjustment to get the plate fully on the forklift when the plate pinched one employee's left ring finger. He suffered a partial amputation to the fingertip.
