Investigation Summary
On April 1, 2004, Employee #1, a 37-year-old landscaper, was using a skilsaw to cut a piece of redwood trim. As he held the trim with his left hand and leaned the wood against a can, Employee #1 used his right hand to operate the saw. For some reason, the saw kicked back and came into contact with his left hand. Employee #1 was hospitalized and treated for a severed left index finger, which required surgery to reattach it.
