Final narrative
A sanitation worker was working at a sink in the production area near the kettles. A kettle operator was using a forklift to raise drums of hot sauce. A drum was knocked from the pallet, struck a cart, and hit the ground. A plastic bag within the drum broke open when the drum hit the floor, and the hot sauce contained within the plastic bag hit the back of the sanitation employee. The employee received first and second degree burns on the head, front, arm and leg. Additionally, an area on the foot received a third degree burn.
