Investigation Summary
At about 2:10 p.m. on June 19, 2012, Employee #1, with Ruskin Company, was trying to put a metal safety bar (3.75 in. by 3.75 in. by 48 in.) into a slot of a storage rack. A handle was welded on the side of the safety bar about 4 in. from the bottom of the bar. Employee #1 tried to put the safety bar upside down keeping the handle on the top. As the bar came down, his right ring and pinkie finger got crushed between the handle and the edge of the slot. The handle caused the amputation of his right ring finger and the laceration on his pinkie finger. Employee #1 was hospitalized.
