Investigation Summary
EMPLOYEE #1 WAS CLEANING A BREAD ROLL MAKING MACHINE WHEN HE NOTICED THAT SOME DOUGH HAD FALLEN INTO THE HOPPER. HE REACHED INTO THE HOPPER WITH HIS LEFT HAND, PLACING TWO FINGERS INTO THE RECESSES OF THE DRUM. WHILE DISMOUNTING THE TABLE, WHICH WAS COVERED WITH OIL (USED DURING CLEANING), THE EMPLOYEE SLIPPED AND CONTACTED A MICRO-SWITCH LOCATED ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE MACHINE.
