Abstract: At 8:30 a.m. on March 15, 2019, an employee was working with Coworker #1 moving large spools of netting used to cover fruit trees. The task required the employee to manually remove an empty spool and replacing it with a full spool while coworker #1 was lifting the spool with a forklift. At some point, Coworker #2 (unidentified) yelled to "lift" and as Coworker #1 lifted with the forklift, the employee still had his hand in the bracket that holds the spool. His right middle finger was pinched between the spool and the bracket and partially amputated, requiring hospitalization.
