(CNN) A UPS contractor was seriously injured on Monday while working on the conveyor belt system at a facility in Kansas City, Missouri.

The cleaning crew at the facility alerted emergency officials at about 5:50 p.m. CT that they had found a 25-year-old man whose upper body had been caught in the conveyor belt machinery, according to the Kansas City Missouri Fire Department.

Rescue teams extracted the man shortly after they arrived and took him to the North Kansas City Hospital, Deputy Chief Jimmy Walker told CNN.

"Prognosis for survival is not very good," Walker said.
