Lessons Learned – Expanding the Personal Protection Envelope
Year: 2003
Abstract: Description of Driving Event:
Two (2) finger injuries illustrate an important principle for personal protection - when it should begin and end.
1. A team member was climbing down off a flat bed truck when his wedding ring caught on a side railing.
2. The second incident occurred when a team member who, in starting to survey a work area, suffered a cut when he placed his left hand on a box as he was stepping down a small step.
In both of these cases, the team member luckily only received non-permanent minor injuries, even though it is easy to see that severe permanent injuries could have occurred. Both of these team members are known to consistently wear their Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and gloves, but one employee had just taken his gloves off and in the other case the employee had not put his gloves on yet.
