Memorandum: Plaintiff, an employee of Nestle Prepared Foods Company, Inc. (defendant), commenced this action seeking damages for injuries he sustained while cleaning a machine at work. Supreme Court properly granted the motion of defendant seeking dismissal of the amended complaint against it based on the exclusivity provisions of Workers’ Compensation Law § 11. Plaintiff contends that the “dual capacity doctrine” should be applied herein because defendant designed the machine for the exclusive use of its employees. We reject that contention (see generally Reich v Manhattan Boiler & Equip. Corp., 91 NY2d 772, 779-780 [1998]; Billy v Consolidated Mach. Tool Corp., 51 NY2d 152, 160 [1980], rearg denied 52 NY2d 829 [1980]; Kubiszyn v Terex Div. of Terex Corp., 212 AD2d 93, 96-97 [1995], lv denied 86 NY2d 711 [1995]).
