Investigation Summary
On June 22, 2006, Employee #1 was operating a forklift at a warehouse distribution center of a national retail grocery chain.

Employee #1 did not have immediate access to an emergency shower or to appropriate emergency procedures. He sustained second-degree chemical burns to his groin, buttocks and bilateral (both) thighs. He was hospitalized for treatment for chemical burns. Employee #1 was a full-time employee of this employer.
