Investigation Summary
At 7:40 a.m. on January 7, 2017, an employee opened meat hopper lid on a meat mixer/grinder and was reaching across the hopper pushing meat that was clinging to the walls of the hopper so that it could be fed out the hopper via the worm auger. The employee's foot tapped the foot switch and the mixer-grinder started and rotated the blade, pinning and fracturing his left fore arm. The employee was hospitalized and treated for his injuries.
