Investigation Summary
Employee #1, a delivery driver, was performing his normal job duties of removing bundles of newspapers from a conveyor, and loading them onto his truck. The point where two conveyors came together (meeting end to end) created a nip point. Employee #1 caught two fingers of his left hand in the nip point, but was able to pull them out before being pulled further in. The two fingers were broken.
