Investigation Summary
At 2:00 a.m. on September 21, 2017, Employee #1 and Coworkers #1 and #2, employed by a construction company, were installing casing for an existing underground water/sewer line. Coworker #2 was operating a crane and Coworker #1 was flagging/providing direction to Coworker #2. Coworker #1 made the wrong call, and the crane lifted the casing while Employee #1's hand was on top of it. Employee #1's hand was pinched and crushed between the casing and the underground line. Emergency services were called, and Employee #1 was transported to the hospital. He was admitted and treated for the partial amputation of his right hand's index and middle fingers.
