Investigation Summary
At 11:00 a.m. on March 5, 2019, an employee was removing a pallet that had become caught on a conveyor belt guard. A section of conveyor belt guarding was missing bolts to affix the guard in place causing the pallet to become stuck. When the employee attempted to reposition the unfastened guard on the conveyor belt line, his fingers were caught by the conveyor belt drive mechanism chain, resulting in the partial amputation of two fingers on the left hand. Hospitalization was not required.
