Narrative

An employee was walking near two chillers and attempted to step over some standing water on the ground when he lost his balance. He went to reach for a pole or bar, but instead his left hand fell into a chain and sprocket assembly, amputating his left middle and index fingers. He was hospitalized and had surgery. The chillers were guarded at the time of the incident.
