Abstract: On June 14, 2012, Employee #1 was hand washing dishes in a restaurant's kitchen. These dishes had been soaking overnight in the sink in a solution of approximately 12-15 gallons of water and one-half cup of bleach (pure bright ultra germicidal bleach, 5.0-6.0% sodium hypochlorite). Employee #1 was wearing disposal vinyl gloves at the time. After 10 to 15 minutes of dishwashing, Employee #1 sustained welts/blisters (chemical burns) on the bottom half of his forearm, which became infected. Employee #1 had to have multiple surgeries, which included skin graft and surgery on the right side forearm area.
