The labour department has issued a contravention notice against a Komani food company after a worker s hand was severed by a machine last week.
Truda Foods says Eugene Jali undid a safety latch and inserted his hand into the machine.
But an occupational health and safety inspection on 15 January found a lack of supervision , says the department.
The Department of Employment and Labour has taken action against a food company in Komani, formerly Queenstown, where a worker s hand was severed by a machine last week.
Eastern Cape Department of Employment and Labour communication officer Ziphozihle Josefu said inspectors had visited Truda Foods on 15 January soon after the accident in which Eugene Jali lost his hand while working on a maize mixing machine.
