Narrative

An employee was working in a test booth that tests the noise quality of automobile seats. The conveyor line stopped moving. The employee looked through the test booth doors, leaned over and placed their left hand on the chain and sprocket that drives the conveyor. The conveyor system began moving, resulting in amputations to the left index, middle and ring fingers.
