Investigation Summary
At approximately 1:50 p.m. on October 20, 2006, Employee #1 was going to turn off a circuit breaker for machine Number 5. He tripped and fell sideways and placed his left arm out to balance and catch himself. His left arm and gloved hand hit the idler pulley roller and belt, which pulled his left arm and hand into the unguarded roller-belt area of the scrap conveyor. Employee #1 received a broken left arm and crushed left hand and was hospitalized.
