Final narrative
An employee suffered a reaction while cleaning a kitchen sink with bleach, requiring hospitalization.
An employee was in a wash bay using an alkaline chemical cleaner to clean truck beds. The employee began experiencing lip numbness and facial and eye redness. The employee also experienced breathing difficulties, resulting in hospitalization.
On February 15, 2023, at approximately 5:15 p.m., an employee laid her head down on a desk and then noticed that her face and tongue were swollen. She later had trouble breathing while driving home. The employee was hospitalized for a potential allergic reaction.
An employee was sitting on a milk crate at the back of a loading dock while talking to another employee. She noticed the other employee began shaking. She went to prevent the other employee from falling when she fell off the dock to the concrete ground, resulting in multiple body injuries that required hospitalization.
Two employees were working in the kitchen area of a food trailer. There was a sudden burst of fire in the kitchen, and both employees were engulfed by deflagration of gas which oriented from a propane-powered griddle. They suffered first-, second- and third-degree burns to their head, face, arms, and legs.
An employee loaded his truck. The dock plate was stuck under the carrier dolly and he could not lift the dock plate from the side while standing on the dock. The employee entered the truck and pushed the dolly away from the dock plate. This allowed him to lift the plate from inside the truck. While lifting the plate, his body shifted forward, and he fell between the dock and the truck, resulting in a fractured left wrist.
The injured employee had been conducting food service activities. He was stabbed twice in the chest and three times in the back by another employee using a pocket knife. The employee was hospitalized.
On April 2, 2025, an employee was reassembling a food-sealing machine when the machine activated and a metal plate pinched their right thumb tip, amputating it. The machine was not locked out/tagged out at the time.
An employee was walking into the motor control center (MCC) room when his right ring finger was caught in the hinge of a doorway. He sustained an open phalanx fracture, which resulted in a partial amputation above the first knuckle.
An employee was changing the spacing on a telehandler's forks. A fork slipped, and the employee's left index finger was caught between it and the mast. The fingertip was medically amputated at the first knuckle.
An employee was pulling down a broken skid with a forklift. When the employee backed up the forklift to get the forks out of the skid he pulled down, he contacted the forks of another parked forklift, fracturing both of his legs. He was hospitalized.
An employee was carrying cups back to the kitchen when her foot got caught on a cart and she fell face-first. During the fall, a piece of glass from a cup cut the inside of her mouth, severing an artery. She also sustained a laceration on her lower lip. The employee was hospitalized.
