Investigation Summary
A coworker was repairing a steam sump pump located under a Sundet platform. The sump was filled with dirt and hot water. The coworker removed the sump cover on the top and started working on it. Employee #1 saw him and volunteered to help. At lunch time, Employee #1 went on lunch break while the coworker continued working. Before Employee #1 came back, the coworker went to the bathroom, and he did not replace the sump cover. When Employee #1 came back, he got the pump ready to install into the sump. At this time, Employee #1's left foot accidentally stepped into the sump, which was full of boiling water. The hot water went over his boot and burned his left leg.
