Investigation Summary
At 2:02 p.m. on September 17, 2021, an employee was working as a foundry worker for a manufacturer of metal components. The employee was standing in front of a column near the ladle filling it with molten aluminum. The employee inadvertently bumped the ladle handle against the column causing the molten metal to splash out of the label. The metal struck the employee on his right leg above his aluminized legging. Coworker #1 who was the supervisor was in the office, but coworkers could not locate him. The employee went home for the weekend without notifying Coworker #1. The employee returned on Monday, September 20, 2021, declining medical attention and continuing to work. On Tuesday, September 21, 2021, Coworker #1, the human resources manager, sent the employee to an occupational health clinic. The employee was referred to the local medical center, where he was hospitalized with a burn to his lower right leg.
