2025 First Alert LTI#15 Floor suffered finger injury
While performing maintenance on the power tong at the rig floor, the mechanic lifted the tong hydraulically to create space to work on the backup assembly. At the same time, the floorman placed his hand on top of the tong. The floorman left-hand little finger caught between the tong and the elevator, resulting in a pinch injury on the little finger.
Do you ensure crush points (Line of Fire) are effectively identified & discussed during pre job meetings? Do you ensure to perform dynamic risk review whenever work changes? Do you stop and reassess when something doesn’t feel safe?
The tong was isolated; however, it was not secured with chain to prevent movement. There was no clear communication before operating the tong . The Floorman was unaware his hand was in the crushing point (Line of Fire).
