As he inadvertently touched the individual strips of the conveyor, Employee #1's gloved right ring and little fingers were caught and squeezed between two adjacent strips, and amputated. He was taken to the Western Hand Center in Downey for treatment. A serious violation of T8CCR 4002(a) was observed and cited.
