Investigation Summary
At 12:17 p.m. on July 20, 2020, an employee was assisting in cleaning an outside conveyor in a sorting area when a coworker asked him to stand away from the conveyor while it was sprayed with water. The employee observed a conveyor operating nearby had some loose bell pepper stems on it and he attempted to reach into the conveyor to remove the stems. The employee caught his gloved hand in a pinch point between the conveyor belt and a stainless steel chute, requiring hospitalization for tendon reattachment.
