Employee amputates fingertips in food processor

At 11:00 a.m. on August 28, 2020, an employee was shredding cabbage with a food processing machine (Robot Coupe CL 50). The employee was hand-feeding cabbage into the food processing machine. The employee reached too far into the machine, and the tips of her right index and middle fingers contacted the rotating blade (point of operation) of the machine, causing amputation injuries. The employee was hospitalized.
