Employee's finger is amputated while working on equipment

At 2:00 p.m. on September 12, 2019, an employee was working for a firm that rented or leased construction, mining, and forestry machinery. He maintained that machinery. He was working in the shop area on some damaged boom lift equipment. He stuck his left index finger up into the hole on the bottom of the damaged boom. He was trying to feel around for the base plate. The boom shifted forward, crushing his finger between two parts. His finger was severed down to the second knuckle. He was hospitalized. On October 4, 2019, a representative of the employer reported the incident to OSHA.
