Investigation Summary
On February 4, 2012, Employee #1, a 22-year-old male food processor, was cleaning the screw auger and conveyer of an automated extruder. The machinery was still energized when the employee put his entire hand into the screw conveyor attempting to clear extraneous food product from the machinery. The rotating screw conveyor amputated all five of the worker's fingers of his right hand. The company did not have a lock out/tag out program in place, which would have prevented the machinery from being in an energized state while the screw conveyor was being cleaned.
