Incident on Jan 31, 2020: Employee suffers partial finger amputation while using magne
At 10:00 a.m. on January 31, 2020, an employee was drilling holes on a steel bracket using a magnetic drill. While cutting, he was needed to clear the steel shavings produced by the cut. In order to cut the 3-inch thickness, the guard on the drill was lifted at least 1.5 inches to allow the employee to spray lubrication onto the cutter bit. As he was clearing the shavings, his left-hand glove was caught in with the shaved steel. He asked the coworker operating the handle control to turn the drill off, so that he can free up his hand, but the drill kept turning after pressing off until a complete stop. At that time, the bit continued to pull his glove with his hand towards the bit, causing the partial amputation of his left finger and lacerations to his arms. The employee was hospitalized.

Incident on Apr 30, 1988 (fatal): Employee killed in fall from balcony
Employee #1, an iron worker supervisor, went up to the east balcony to check on some angle iron that had been improperly fabricated. He was wearing a safety bel t but did not tie off when he proceeded beyond the wire guardrails. He apparentl y tripped on either nails that had been driven into the concrete and bent over o r one of the Nelson-type studs sticking up out of the concrete by about one inch . He apparently grabbed an angle that was lying atop the planter supports to cat ch his balance, but the angle had not been welded or secured to the supports and slid out. The angle fell off the supports followed by Employee #1. He grabbed t he lower area of one of the supports and attempted to hold on, but his downward motion apparently swung his lower body up under the balcony and he fell 22 ft 6 in. to the concrete floor. He landed at a flat angle, causing his head to strike the concrete floor. Employee #1 was killed. He had been wearing a hard hat, but it came off his head in the fall.
