Investigation Summary
At 11:30 a.m. on February 1, 2021, Employee #1 was removing a bag of cheese from a load shelf that had been filled and sealed by a machine. The employee reached to retrieve the bag, believing the motion of the load shelf had stopped. However, the load shelf moved up and down, and the little finger of her right hand was caught underneath, resulting in the amputation of the tip of her finger. The employee was treated without hospitalization.
