Event: 09/23/2005
Employee's arm lacerated when electric saw slips

At approximately 9:53 a.m. on September 23, 2005, Employee #1, of Dawalt Tile, was working in a seventh-floor condominium in San Diego, CA. He was using a Pro Series electric saw to cut some numbers out of 1 in. wide blue tape on a wall. The blade skipped and Employee #1 suffered a 12 in. gash in his left forearm that reached the bone and severed an artery. A coworker came to his assistance, applied a tourniquet, and gave Employee #1 first aid. Paramedics transported Employee #1 to UCSD Medical Center, where he was admitted for treatment and surgery. At the time of the accident, the manager was getting supplies and was not at the construction site.
