Employee's Finger Is Amputated by Band Saw Blade

At approximately 6:00 p.m. on January 5, 2008, Employee #1 was cutting a cow foot for a customer with a band saw at a grocery store located in San Jose, California. The band saw blade kicked the piece of cow foot forward, causing Employee #1's hand to rotate upward and into the blade. Employee #1 amputated his middle finger and lacerated his index and ring fingers on his right hand. Employee #1 was treated at the Valley Medical Center in San Jose, California. He was released from the hospital before midnight. Employee #1 did not adjust a guard properly, allowing his hand to hit the blade. According to a safety coordinator, Employee #1 did not have authorization to use the band saw in the meat department.
