Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was stepping down from the last rung on an A-frame stepladder when the ring on his left middle finger got caught on a part of a storage rack nearby. The momentum of Employee #1's body weight plus the downward movement pulled the skin and tissue off his left middle finger. Employee #1 had retrieved a pair of work gloves from a mezzanine and was attempting to descend when his ring got caught by the top corner of the rack causing him to loss his balance. Employee #1 was treated at the emergency room and was later taken to a medical center where he underwent an operation. As the result of the surgical operation, Employee #1's left middle finger was partially amputated. Employee #1 was hospitalized.
