Investigation Summary
At 1:30 p.m. on January 11, 2022, an employee was working inside a 53-foot trailer parked at a loading dock. The employee attempted to collapse a portion of a TOFC Manual Roller Conveyor he was using to load parcels into the trailer. The conveyor extended into the trailer to the nose and conveys parcels down the rollers to the employee working at the nose of the trailer, which decreases the walking distance for employees. As the the employee loads the trailer, the conveyor collapses like an accordion, allowing the employee to stack parcels to the back of the trailer. A coworker was working at the rear of the trailer and attempted to help the employee by adjusting the conveyor alignment allowing the employee to push and collapse the conveyor more easily. The employee pinched his left index finger in the conveyor partially amputating the fingertip and requiring medical treatment without hospitalization.
