Narrative

An employee was removing product from a drip pan under a conveyor. He braced himself with his left hand on the conveyor framework near the drum motor. His left glove became caught on the outside of the drum motor causing his hand to be pulled in between the belt and the drum motor resulting in a laceration to the hand and a fractured middle finger.
