Narrative

Employee was cutting the tabs on a bucket of rivets to get the lid open. EE was cutting the tabs left handed and was holding the bottom of the bucket with right hand. The bucket is plastic. So being it was cold outside the plastic was cutting harder than usual and EE was exerting more pressure to cut. When they cut through they cut their right hand.
