Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:15 a.m., on September 16, 2008, Employee #1 and a coworker (a production worker) were using hand-held rags to clean spilled liquid shoe polish cream from the turntable and tube holder cups, and the tube crimping area, of a Kalix KX 601 tube filler machine. The machine's power remained on to clean the turntable and the 12 tube holder cups, one by one. The coworker pressed the machine's pendant control to move to the next tube holder cup. At the same time, Employee #1 was using a rag wrapped around his left index finger to clean the tube crimping area. His left index finger got caught in the crimping area and he sustained fracture and amputation of the finger. Employee #1 was initially taken to U.S. HealthWorks for treatment. He was then taken to the Arrowhead Regional Medical Center for surgery and was discharged at 10:00 p.m. the same day. The employer manufactures shoe polish cream, shampoos, conditioners, shower gels and creams for commercial wholesale businesses.
