Investigation Summary
At about 11:00 a.m. on August 23, 2013, Employee #1, a 28-year-old male machine operator with Wiltor Corp Dba Pacific Packaging Products, was operating a bubble wrap extruder machine. Employee #1 was cutting bubble wrap with the machine; the cutter process caused the machine to throw off excess bubble wrap material. Employee #1 was handling the excess bubble wrap with his right hand to coil it for easy disposal. While holding the excess bubble wrap, Employee #1 lost his balance, and his right hand became entangled in the in-running nip point of a drive pulley for the excess take-up wheel. Employee #1 was transported to Kaiser Permanente Hospital in Baldwin Park for an amputation injury, where he underwent surgery to remove the distal phalynx of his right fifth digit. Employee #1 was treated and released the same day as the injury. The Employer was a manufacturer of padded mailing envelopes. The worksite was Employer's plant premises. There were no unusual site conditions. Employer was cited for failing to guard the in-running nip point on the pulley, which created a hazardous revolving, running and rolling action.
