Final narrative
An employee was moving a forklift mounting plate from a shelf onto a pallet. The pallet was lifted on a forklift and the mounting plates were slid from a 3.5-feet-tall shelf to the pallet. The plates have a notch in them, and while the employee was guiding the second plate onto the pallet, his right index finger was amputated at the first knuckle.
