Investigation Summary
At about 10:00 a.m. on August 15, 2006, Employee #1 was cutting a piece of wood with a Skil circular saw in order to hang drywall. The piece of wood had a knot on the cut line. When the saw hit the knot, the blade kicked back and struck the employee on his left forearm. The safety guard on the blade was in place but got stuck, when the blade hit the knot. The employee sustained a laceration injury and was transported to a hospital, where he was treated for his injury and remained until the next day.
