At 12:05 p.m. on July 5, 2006, Employee #1 was working as a temporary or secondary employee for So Cal Bakeries, which was dba Gold Coast Baking Co. He had been sent there by his primary employer, L&T Staffing, Inc., dba Staffing Solutions. Employee #1 was working as a machine operator at the employer's facility, a bakery. He was operating the intermediate proof box, with serial number L4-INT- 01, on the "K" Line. It made bread dough balls. He started his shift at 10:30 a.m. and continued working on the machine until 11:30 or 11:45 a.m., when he took his break. He said that when he left, the guard on the chains and sprockets was in place. When Employee #1 came back from his break at 12:00 noon, he resumed working on the machine.
