Investigation Summary
At 1:45 p.m. on December 16, 2020, Employee #1, a manufacturing associate, was accompanying a quality inspector during an annual quality audit in the beverage can filler production area. The quality inspector requested to see a strainer located on the piping housing. Without first releasing the pressure from the piping line, Employee #1 attempted to remove the strainer. As a result, the strainer ejected forcefully, striking Employee #1 above the left eye. Paramedics transported the employee to the hospital, where he was treated for a concussion and a laceration above the left eye. The employee was hospitalized.
