Investigation Summary
At approximately 5:01 p.m. on February 11, 2021, an employee was picking up a block of wood near a pulley on a conveyor system when the hand or clothing became caught between the pulley and its frame. The incident resulted in a fracture of the employee's right humerus. The employee was hospitalized for treatment. This highlights the need for proper guarding and hazard controls around moving parts in conveyor systems to prevent entanglement injuries.
