Welder's finger is pinched by folding work platform

At 9:30 a.m. on September 14, 2017, Employee #1, employed by a welding company, was working at a building construction job site. He was on the roof and removing a welder's platform (angel wing) from an overhead beam. Employee #1 held onto the bottom of the metal platform as he tried to unhook it from the beam. The welder's platform unhooked and folded, and the folding action pinched Employee #1's left pinky finger to the first knuckle. Emergency services were called, and Employee #1 was transported to the hospital, admitted, and treated for the pinching injury.
