An employee was on the ground, lining up a load for a flatbed truck. The employee had placed dunnage on the tire and moved it right as the load was put in place. This caused the trailer to level out and catch his finger between the dunnage and the trailer frame. He sustained a partial fingertip amputation, no bone, to the fourth left-hand digit.
