Investigation Summary
At approximately 7:10 a.m. on September 7, 2010, Employee #1 was working in an office with a large glass window. Employee #2 was working on an assembly line adjacent to a barrel pump grease system that operated at approximately 1,800 psi. The system consisted of both flexible rubber hose and fixed steel pipe. The employees were injured when a failure occurred in the grease system. A piece of steel approximately 18-in. long was thrown approximately 60 ft. It went through the window and struck Employee #1 in the face. She was hospitalized with fractured facial bones. Employee #2 was struck with small debris and grease. She was hospitalized with a closed head injury and significant hearing loss due to the percussion from the rupture of the system. Seven other workers were treated and released.
