Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:30 a.m. on January 21, 1994, Employee #1 caught his gloved left hand in a running rubber mill, resulting in skin loss, nerve damage, and the amputation of his index, middle, and ring fingers. Immediately before the incident, Employee #1 was heating rubber by pressing it between two rollers. During that operation, he cut the rubber on the closer roller with a knife in his bare right hand, picking up the loose hot rubber with his gloved left hand. He then noticed that his left hand was caught between layers of rubber. Upon hitting the brakes and pulling out his hand he saw the injury. He was taken to the Whittier Presbyterian Hospital for treatment. A serious violation of 8CCR3384(b) was observed and cited.
