During shovel disassembly, cutting operations were taking place and a hot spark started some combustible materials smoldering. The employee scooped the material with a dust pan and when he dumped it the material flared up causing 2nd degree burns to the face and neck. The doctor placed him off work until the blisters healed to prevent infection.
