Abstract: On September 22, 2012, Employee #1, a cook, had taken down the hood filters above fryers and was putting them back in place after washing them. He was standing on top of a steel cart with wheels. The cart had been left next to the fryer. Employee #1 held a rod to balance himself as he was putting a filter back in; however, it wouldn't fit, so he used both hands to do it. As he did this, he lost his balance and the table moved. Employee #1 slipped and his right leg went in the first uncovered fryer (three uncovered fryers next to each other), which was still on. Employee #1's foot got tangled in the fryer basket making it difficult for him to get out immediately, causing him to receives burns. Employee #1 was transported to a medical center, where he was treated for his injury and hospitalized.
