AN investigation is being carried out at Sellafield into how an employee was badly injured while working in the Thorp receipt and storage facility.
The 47-year-old man from Millom became trapped between a fuel transport flask and a handrail.
A Board of Inquiry has been set up.
Sellafield emergency services took man to the site surgery before he was moved to The West Cumberland Hospital wher he has been for two weeks but Sellafield’s operators said yesterday they could not give any details of his condition because of employee confidentiality.
