Employee sustains amputation using case packer

At 5:05 a.m. on January 13, 2022, an employee was removing a box of product from the case packer while the line was down.

During this process, the employee's right hand was pulled into the belt and pulley, causing injury. The employee's right index finger was amputated below the middle knuckle. Her right ring finger was broken, and there was tendon damage to other fingers at the palm of the hand. The employee was treated without hospitalization.
