Abstract: At approximately 2:00 p.m. on November 1, 2016, Employee #1 removed an empty pallet from a gravity fed material conveyance system. The removal of an empty pallet would automatically allow a backup pallet with stored goods on it to gradually roll forward on the material conveyance system. The pallet jammed and Employee #1 tugged on it to bring it forward. As it rolled forward, Employee #1 reached in to get a broken piece of wood when his finger was caught between the pallet and tray on which it was riding and the metal framework which stops the forward movement of the pallet. Employee #1s right ring finger was amputated. Employee #1 was hospitalized
