Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was working along a moving conveyor line on which metal parts are suspended from hooks and painted. She worked back up the line, approaching an unguarded floor/platform drop-off into a 6 ft 6 in. pit. She tripped and fell into the pit, landing on a concrete floor. While falling, she tried to catch herself by grabbing at a suspended metal part, cutting her hand. She also sustained fractures of the left shoulder and elbow when she landed.
