Employee Cuts Foot When Sprayed by Pressure Washer Nozzle

On August 2, 2007, Employee # 1 released a spray of water by pulling the trigger lever of a Husky high-pressure water blaster gun. Simultaneously, he accidentally swung the pressure washer nozzle across his left foot. The employer did not provide an additional gaiter on the metatarsal boots to prevent accidental exposure to the water pressure gun. The 30-thousand psi water pressure penetrated through his safety boots and caused a lacerated injection wound on his foot. He was admitted to the hospital on August 2, 2007, was treated and discharged on August 10, 2007 from the Regional Medical Center in San Jose.
