Stone Splitters #3 · Caught in, under or between a moving and a stationary object

Approximately 8:30 am, a worker was stacking rock onto a pallet when they smashed a finger tip. We bandaged finger & employee said they wanted to continue to work. EE worked until noon then went home. EE came to work the next day & told us they had gone to the ER later that evening to check it out. They gave EE a shot for pain, splinted the finger & sent them home.
