Investigation Summary
At 10:00 a.m. on June 4, 2019, Employee #1 and coworkers, employed by an electrical contractor, were using a telescoping industrial truck and a synthetic web sling to pull electrical cable from underground. As Employee #1 rigged the sling to the cable, he positioned his hand between the sling and the load. The truck operator raised the load. As the sling was being tightened around the load, the load shifted, and Employee #1's left index finger was caught between the sling and the load. The finger was degloved. The employee was transported to the hospital and admitted for treatment, including amputation of the finger.
