Investigation Summary
At 5:30 a.m. on March 24, 2021, Employee #1 was repositioning the jack inside the boom when the boom moved forward. The employee lost his balance and attempted to catch himself by placing his hands on the walls of the boom.

The movement of the boom caused lacerations and broken bones to the employee's hand. The employee was hospitalized for treatment of the injuries.
