Investigation Summary
At 11:30 a.m. on March 14, 2019, Employee #1, a carpenter employed by a construction company, was engaged in interior renovation work at a multifamily residential structure. The employee was using a sliding miter saw, Ryobi Model Number TSS701, to cut quarter-round lengths of wood for trim. As the employee cut a piece approximately 3 inches in length, the employee's left hand index finger came into contact with the saw's blade. The employee was transported to the hospital and admitted for treatment of the laceration. The finger required amputation up to the second knuckle.
