Investigation Summary
At 12:45 p.m. on October 23, 2020, an employee working as a machine operator for a commercial bakery was cleaning a machine. The employee placed his right index finger into a small opening on the bottom of the hopper to clear product that was not draining. The machine was powered by a cord and plug, and the employee did not power the machine down. The employee caught his finger in a point of operation and required medical treatment without hospitalization for a partial amputation to the finger.
