Narrative

The employee was using a utility knife to trim the edge of a urethane screen so he could get it set into place. While in the process of trimming this screen, the utility knife slipped off the screen and cut through his glove into the bottom of his thumb. This resulted in a 2 inch laceration that required 10 staples to close.
