Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was performing regularly assigned work stacking carpet padding. The padding comes out of a machine where it was formed and cured. Round knives then automatically cut it to size on the sides. An automatic shear then cuts it to length. At some point the shear became jammed. Employee #1 reached under the shear to free it. Since the shear is automatic, it triggered at the time that Employee #1's fingers were under it, amputating three fingertips. Employee #1 was hospitalized for his injuries.
