Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:45 p.m. on April 5, 2017, an employee was a part of the sanitation crew that was cleaning and sanitizing the machines at the facility. The crew consisted of four crew members and one supervisor. The supervisor was on site when the accident occurred. The employee was in the process of cleaning and sanitizing the Leek Processing Machine at that facility. The machine was operating, and he was using a hose to spray the moving machine components. During this process, he reached into the machine and his clothing became entangled by its rotating components. As his clothing was drawn into the Leek Processing Machine, his arm was broken. When his clothing tightened around him, he was asphyxiated. The employee's body was transported from the scene by the coroner. Even though the members of the Sanitation Crew were regularly near the moving components of the operating machines, no control of hazardous energy or Lockout/Tagout procedure was available for the Sanitation Crew.
