Abstract: At approximately 5:20 a.m. on July 9, 2012, Employee #1, a 29-year-old female and contract employee of JSL Foods (Secondary employer) and an employee of the Industrial Labor Management Group (ILMG Primary Employer), reached into the Yakisoba Line number six Noodle machine to collect swabs, for bacterial testing, on the noodle lines prior to production. Employee #1 opened the Plexiglas door to collect samples in the cooling area. The line was running and she reached in between the bucket conveyor. Her hand was crushed between the running gear and sprocket. Employee #1 was hospitalized and fractured her right hand in the event. The incident occurred because line number six was not locked and or tagged out, Employee #1 was not trained sufficiently on Lock Out-Tag Out and the Bucket Conveyor Cooling door was not Guarded. This event would have been prevented if the Plexiglas Door was guarded, Employee #1 was trained in Lock Out Tag Out Procedures and followed those procedures. Industrial Labor Management Group (ILMG) Inc, is a Temp Agency that provides JSL Foods Inc., with workers. JSL Foods operates a bakery that produces cookies, noodles and wrappers. They mix flour, water and additives together, bake it, package it and warehouse the baked goods.
