Investigation Summary
At approximately 12:00 p.m. on February 23, 2021, Employee #1 was cleaning dust from the roaster drum. While cleaning, the employee slipped, and in an attempt to prevent a fall, placed his right hand to support himself. His hand landed on the pinch point between the metal wheels and the roaster drum. The employee sustained compound fractures to his middle finger and severe crushing injuries to his right-hand ring finger. The employee was hospitalized and treated for the fractures and crushing injuries. This incident emphasizes the importance of maintaining awareness of pinch points during cleaning tasks and using appropriate fall protection measures when working in potentially hazardous areas.
