Serious cut to finger whilst handling insulation jacket

Whilst holding the section of stainless steel insulation, the pipe stuck and the material slipped within his hand. This caused the insulation jacket to move and the technician instinctively put his hand on the edge to stop it. However, his hand became trapped between the steel edge and a section of racking. This caused a deep laceration on the inside of one of his fingers and the technician was taken to hospital for treatment.

It took over 3 months for the technician to fully recover.
