Narrative

Employee was changing out the old skirting on the north side of the 14A conveyor belt. He lay the old skirting across his legs and began cutting it with a utility knife to shorten it down. As he was making his first cut, the knife slipped and the blade stuck him in his right thigh causing a laceration requiring 4 stitches.
