Investigation Summary
At 11:00 a.m. on July 27, 2020, an employee and a coworker (supervisor) were moving a vehicle utilizing a back hoe (PIT) and and a chain hoist to lift the vehicle with the front bucket of the back hoe. The employee was attempting to unhook the sling from underneath the front bumper of the vehicle and but the hooks were stuck onto the bumper. The employee hand signalled his coworker who was operating the back hoe to lower the bucket. The coworker interpreted the hand signal as to lift the bucket and consequently pinched the employee's index finger between the sling and the hook. The employee amputated his finger and required hospitalization.
