Betteroads Asphalt Corp · Caught in, under or between (Not Elsewhere Classified)

The accident occurred on the conveyor belt that goes to the fine mill. The employee was cleaning the accumulated material on the magnet while the plant was out of service. Then the operator without noticing that the employee was still cleaning, turns the plant back on, this caused the employee to be trapped between the conveyor belt and the magneto.
