Employee suffers burns after propane catches fire

From their truck, two workers were filling a 150-gallon home propane tank. Employee #1 (on the job for one week with no previous training) was at the back of the truck with the hose used to fill the tank. Employee #1 was to shut off the valve and wind the hose back onto the reel. The other employee, the supervisor and trainer, was near the front of the truck making the ticket out for the customer. Employee #1 received burns to his upper torso, arms, legs and head area. He has serious burns to 77 percent of his body when the propane caught fire.
