Abstract: At 12:00 p.m. on August 9, 2017, Employee #1, employed by an air conditioning and heating contractor, was working at a building job site. He was getting a temperature reading of the building's HVAC system. He removed the temperature gauge from the suction line, which involved removing the electrical tape. In so doing, he sustained a cut to his left hand middle finger when it came into contact with the outer part of the HVAC unit. Initially, Employee #1 considered the cut minor. However, two weeks later he required treatment when the cut became infected. He received hospital treatment for a bacterial infection and finger cellulitis.
