Investigation Summary
At 12:20 p.m. on September 3, 2019, an employee was operating a manual beader machine and was putting caps on cans which were 5 inches in diameter by 6 inches long. The employee had to insert the can on a rotating shaft with her left hand and hold a long handle with her right hand to activate the machine.
