At approximately 7:30 p.m. on July 22, 1996, Employee #1, of Golden State Foods, was working on machines 1-18 #5 and #6 in the ketchup room of the products department. Just before the accident, an approximately 6 in. by 12 in. by 18 in. box of picante sauce became jammed. Employee #1 cleared it and then returned to her workstation.

As it returned, her left hand became caught between the pusher and the housing shield, amputating her little finger. The employer was cited for a serious violation of T8CCR 4002(a).
