BIG OUCH!
Hope all goes well with the recovery.
Go into work and use your other hand to enter it into the accident book.
Get your union involved (if you are amember), or get a good solicitor.
Any compensation will take a very long time, as they need to see the recovery and how well it repairs / heals, and what (hopefully none) permanant
damage has been done.
Mate of mine had about 5 years of crap, after falling off a set of aircraft steps (the big ones on a lorry) and landing on his heel and shattering
it.
He now has aches and pains especially at this time of the year.
Make sure you get anything that you are entitled to.
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
Best Regards
Geoff

There are a lot of nerves in fingers, you have my sympathy. I once trapped both my index fingers in a chain at a foundry I was working in, pulled them
out leaving one nail behind and badly bruising the other. I also had another where a casting rolled on my little finger and burst it but didn't
break it and the joint swelled up and had to be aspirated with a big needle then 7 stitches up the inside to hold it in. It healed perfectly except in
cold weather it looks blue and is a bit reluctant to move. Don't let anyone put you off claiming you have a right to whatever you can get for
your pain caused in the pursuit of someone else's profit.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I've covered a lot of stuff like this in Health and Safety courses, i think someones going to need to rewrite your method statement/risk
assessments !!!
Unfortunately you can't legislate for f*cking idiots.
Thats my line offshore.....
You can put all the bits of paper in front o them but stupidity usually wins...
