Abstract: At 3:40 a.m. on May 29, 2019, an employee was conducting a final inspection of a conveyor following a full sanitation cleaning. The employee was folding up a section of the conveyor and did not install the pins to lock the end section of the conveyor in the upright position. The end portion of the conveyor fell backwards toward the main section and pinched the employee's finger between the sections. The employee amputated his left ring finger tip requiring medical treatment but was not hospitalized.
