Abstract: At 3:20 p.m. on August 20, 2019, an employee worked to move steel road plates using a front-end loader. The employee began the process of chaining a six-foot-by-eight-foot-by-one-inch steel plate to the loader to lift the plate and move it to cover a trench. After chaining the plate, the employee found the plate to be uneven and attempted to shift the plate by hand. The plate shifted and the employee received a crush injury to the right index finger. The employee was taken to the hospital for treatment without hospitalization.
