Investigation Summary
At approximately 3:15 p.m. on May 28, 2011, an employee, a full-time employee of the employer working for the company for approximately 3 years, was conducting normally assigned duties as a meat cutter using the Hobart Corp Meat Saw, Model Number 6614, and Serial Number 31-1412-040. The employee was splitting pork spare ribs on the Meat Saw as a special order for a customer. The slab that the employee was cutting was approximately 1 foot wide and more than 2 feet long, and only a little over an inch thick. With his both hands grasping the near end, the employee pushed the slab into the moving saw blade. The employee was pushing the slab all the way through and recounted that his fingers were outstretched rather than tucked as he had been trained. The employee's right hand slipped under the slab and came into contact with the moving blade. As he felt the cut, he yanked his hand back. The employee suffered an amputation of the third digit of his right hand at the medial joint, and a laceration to the lateral aspect of his right hand between the first and second digits. At the time of the accident, the employee's supervisor was in the cooler. The employee was transported by ambulance to Riverside Community Hospital and then transferred to Loma Linda University Medical Center where he was treated for amputation and released.
