A 19-year-old worker is calling for an investigation into a workplace accident near the Nu Iron plant at Point Lisas that resulted in the amputation of part of his left little finger.
The teen, a wash bay technician employed by RPM Technical Services, said the incident occurred on August 3, after he was assigned by a supervisor to work in a confined space using a sledgehammer to dislodge material trapped inside a hopper.
