EE received second degree burns to his left thumb when the hose on the torch he was using caught when he went to reposition the torch to begin a new cut.

While trying to remove buildup on rollers, came into contact with moving part and fractured upper right arm.

Two employees were removing a walkway from a belt structure prior to installation of beltline. One was inspecting a support angle to determine where it was welded. Another employee cut his support angle at another location allowing the support truss to fall approx 4"" striking the first employee's right thumb, causing laceration injury. Required 2 stitches.
