Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:00 a.m. on November 27, 2002, Employee #1, a carpenter working on a sewer and storm drain pipe installation site, was cutting 1-inch by 6-inch boards into 4-foot sections to be used as supports for a precast concrete pipe. He was using a Skil circular saw and had elevated the board with a pallet and was holding the board in his left hand. As the employee started to cut the board, the saw blade made contact with the left ring finger causing a partial amputation of his left ring finger. The employee was transported to Henry Mayo hospital in Valencia, CA where he was treated for his injuries.
