Investigation Summary
At 9:15 p.m. on October 28, 2017, an employee was operating an ironworker machine and used his right hand to place a flat metal bar into the flat bar shear station. The employee held the metal in place on the bar shear station table and rested his left hand on the coper-notching station table underneath the guard. Two of the three sides of the guard was bent outwards from the vertical face of the coper-notching station. The employee activated the ironworker by stepping on the foot pedal and the bar shear blade descended and cut the flat metal bar. The top notcher blade descended and amputated the fingertips from the employee's middle and ring fingers from his left hand. Hospitalization was not required.
