Investigation Summary
On October 26, 2010, Employee #1 was working at an asphalt product manufacturing facility. He and his employer's head mechanic had completed work on a truck bar. Employee #1 walked into an adjacent shed, removed his gloves, and cleaned up their tools. Employee #1 then exited the shed, and as he walked by the truck, the head mechanic shut off a pump. This shutoff resulted in an inadvertent backsplash of hot liquid asphalt binder that sprayed onto Employee #1, causing burns to his face and neck and the back of his left hand. Employee #1's immediate supervisor was onsite.
