Showing all 3While unloading drill steels, a steel fell and the left middle finger was caught between a resting steel and the falling steel, resulting in a laceration to the finger.
Two EEs had been tasked with relocating a portable dewatering pump due to insufficient rainfall over the past few months. The EE's were uncoupling the intake line when the hose fell, and the metal flange locking collar struck the EE's hand. The EE suffered a laceration during the event and immediately went to the clinic, where they received five stitches and restricted work duty.
