Investigation Summary
This small employer is a framing contractor. Employee #1 works for the company as a carpenter.

The saw cut Employee #1's left thumb off when it kicked back. The saw was properly guarded. Employee #1 did not do a good job of securing his work before cutting on the 2 by 4. He was hospitalized. Employee #1's thumb was later reattached at the hospital.
