Incident on Jun 14, 1996: Employee's fingers amputated in metal shear
Employee #1 returned from making deliveries and had begun his other duty of clea ning up after the welders at the plant. He was working in the shop area when a w elder asked him to shear a few small pieces of metal. Employee #1 sheared all th e parts but one, and then held the last part on both the top and the bottom so h e would not have to go around the machine to pick it up. The stock metal clamp e ngaged, smashing two of his fingers against the bed of the shear. The tips of bo th fingers were amputated, and he was taken to the hospital for treatment. Emplo yee #1 had not been trained to operate the metal shear.
