Investigation Summary
At approximately 7:15 a.m. on September 25, 2006, Employee #1 was using a skill saw to cut a small piece of 2" by 4" lumber when the saw slipped and kicked back. The blade struck his left hand, lacerating his little and index fingers, and severing his middle finger below the first knuckle. Coworkers immediately transported Employee #1 to the emergency room, where he was treated and released. According to the employer, the saw was inspected after the accident and no deficiencies were found. The saw guard was also in good working condition. An investigation of the accident concluded that it was most likely caused by using an improper tool (skill saw) to cut a piece of lumber that small.
