Investigation Summary
At 3:00 p.m. on November 4, 2019, an employee who worked as a Machine Operator for a building materials supplier was troubleshooting a cut line machine. The employee had his hand in the unguarded pinch point manually tying a cable on the automatic cut line that was malfunctioning. When the machine became unjammed, it began operating while the employee's hand was still in the point of operation. The employee fractured and lacerated his middle and ring fingers down to his wrist and was hospitalized.
