Investigation Summary
At approximately 5:00 p.m. on February 8, 2017, Employee #1, a supervisor, was working in a fabrication shop where a number of large machines are used to cut, shape and polish stone pieces to be used for various architectural insulations. The machines use water to prevent stone dust from becoming airborne but create mud or sludge which requires regular clean up. Employee #1 was using a water hose to wash the floor around an operating router. The router was installed between two structural columns, leaving little clearance, approximately 6 inches. As Employee #1 cleaned the floor, he made his way around one of the columns and leaned past it placing his upper body into the operating envelop of the router. As he leaned around the column, the router automatically returned to its starting point just past the column striking and catching him between the machine and the column. Coworkers reversed the machine to free Employee #1, who was then transported to a hospital where he died.
