While booster pump was running, employee checked motor oil & it was squirting out of dipstick. He opened oil spicket on side to pour more oil in it & the oil sprayed out & hit him in the face. He should have put motor oil in the top instead of the side while the motor was running. Received 1st & 2nd degree burns.
