Investigation Summary
At approximately 12:47 a.m. on January 28, 2011, Employee #1 was working as a laborer for the firm Global Green Industrial in Salinas, CA. He had just replaced the pulley belts on a shredding machine and was adjusting them. As he was completing the adjustment, a coworker turned on the machine. The employee had his arm next to a sprocket on the machine. The sprocket caught the sleeve of his shirt and pulled his right hand in. His right hand became caught in a moving sprocket of the machine. He sustained a fracture to the outer portion of his palm and a laceration to his forearm. Apparently, he was not the only worker injured, as the narrative stated that injured workers were transported to Salinas Valley Memorial Hospital. Employee #1's laceration required approximately seven sutures. The Salinas Fire Dept. reported the accident to Cal/OSHA on January 28, 2011. When an investigation was conducted, the scene of the accident had been changed. The employer did not have a lockout/tagout program in place.
