I was involved in an accident due to lack of health and safety in the workplace. I hit my head on an unprotected metal extrusion. Resulting in a deep laceration to my forehead and was taken to A&E where I found out that the extent of the cut had gone all the way down to my skull. I had to go to the facial reconstruction unit and get internal stitches and then 6 external stitches on my forehead. We have the standard PPE, but no hard hats as it shouldn't be required in my industry. It is more of the issue that the extrusion was left without the appropriate protection covering the end of it.
