22 Nov 2023 McCain Foods (G.B.) LimitedMcCain Foods: £700,000 after finger amputation while cleaning a machine €804,320
An employee lost two fingers when his hand was drawn into a rotary valve while he was removing a piece of string from a chute on a breading line. The HSE criticised missing guarding, an inadequate risk assessment and inadequate training. Fine of £700,000 plus costs.
Cleaning and fault clearance are high-risk activities – guarding and training must cover precisely these situations.
Safe cleaning of machinery only when stopped
Missing or inadequate training played a role in the decision.
