Employee Sustains an Amputation with a Bandsaw

At approximately 1:15 p.m. on June 4, 2013, Employee #1, of Select Staffing, had an accident while using a meat bandsaw to cut partially thawed beef shank without the use of a pusher plate. At the time of the accident, Employee #1 was in the meat processing room, using one of three meat bandsaws. He was cutting beef shank pieces that were approximately 7 inches thick into pieces that were 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 inch thick. The meat band saw involved in the accident was a Pro-Saw SS-16 HS Band Saw, manufactured by MPBS Industries. Its dimensions are 36.5 inches by 46 inches by 83.7 inches. It appeared that the absence of a pusher plate contributed to this serious accident. Employee #1 was taken to County USC Medical Center for treatment. He lost much of the thumb and index finger on his right hand.
