Investigation Summary
At 5:30 p.m. on February 19, 2017, Employee #1 was using a manual fed electric power table saw to make rip cuts to hardwood floorboards, which were being installed at a private residence. A total of four employees were onsite, including Employee #1. As the three coworkers were located inside the residence installing the floors, Employee #1 remained in the backyard of the residence where the saw was located. As Employee #1 was cutting the flooring, his left hand contacted the table saw blade and amputated his left thumb, index, and middle fingers, as well as caused nerve damage to his ring finger on the same hand. Employee #1 was hospitalized and underwent surgery to reattach his thumb and middle finger.
