Investigation Summary
On December 9, 2008, Employee #1, a contract carpenter, was using a Makita Electric Works, Ltd. table saw to cut pieces of scrap wood into wedges that measured approximately 1 inch by 1 inch by 5 inches. He was instructed to cut the wedges by the host employer's site supervisor. While Employee #1 was cutting a piece of scrap wood to make a wedge, his left hand came into contact with the saw blade. The blade was not guarded. Employee #1 was taken to Highland Hospital in Oakland, California, where he was hospitalized and under went surgery to repair severe lacerations to his left fourth, fifth, and middle phalanges, as well as severed tendons and nerves on his left thumb. The accident investigation revealed that although employee #1 received safety training from his primary employer, the host employer did not provide Employee #1 with any additional safety training. Additionally, it was determined that the table saw was the incorrect equipment to use in constructing the wood wedges. Other saws were available for Employee #1 to use.
