At the time of incident the IP was holding the cellar pump to guide the pump out of the cellar, once the driller lifted the load, the IP's right hand was caught between the cellar pump and the cellar grating cover, thereby causing injury to the IP's right middle finger.

What pinch points or line-of-fire hazards exist in your current task? How do you verify that the SOP and JSA fully cover the work being performed?. What should you do when the task differs from the approved procedure? When is a Management of Change (MOC) required? How can workers safely guide a suspended load without placing hands in danger zones? What indicators suggest a task should be stopped and reassessed? How do you confirm that all lifting hazards have been identified before starting work? What controls should be in place before lifting equipment is moved in a restricted work area? Keep Hands Out of the Line of Fire – Stop, Assess, and Control the Lift Before the Load Moves.
The removal of the cellar pump was not included in the approved Rig Move SOP and JSA, resulting in hazards associated with the task not being fully identified. A Management of Change (MOC) was not implemented following the change to a larger cellar pump, resulting in additional risks not being formally assessed. The task was conducted using an alternative lifting method that was not the preferred or documented method for removing the cellar pump. The injured person placed his hand in a pinch point/line-of-fire area while guiding a suspended load, resulting in the hand being trapped between the pump and cellar frame. Inadequate planning, hazard recognition, supervision, and STOP intervention allowed the task to continue without sufficient controls
