Employee's fingers injured in power saw

At 3:10 p.m. on November 14, 1991, Employee #1, a carpenter for his father's construction business, was installing replacement windows at a home remodeling project. He was cutting wood on a table saw when he glanced up at a window, and several fingers on his left hand contacted the saw blade. His index finger was severed, and the tip of his thumb and his middle finger were seriously lacerated. He was taken by ambulance to Mountain Community Hospital, then by helicopter to Loma Linda Hospital. The employer later stated that the saw was guarded and that it met all safety requirements. Employee #1 was working alone at the time of the accident.
