A tamper evident closure member having tamper-evident breakaway strips and correctly spaced reinforced pull-tabs allowing a user to remove the closure member and separate the breakaway strips from a container by lifting the closure member at one of the pull-tabs. The closure member is configured such that the removal and separation happen in a single motion. Moreover, the tamper evident closure member includes engaging walls having a different angle than that of a rim of a container, thereby assisting in complete removal of the breakaway strips during the single motion separation. The closure member also includes vertical indicators providing enhanced tamper resistance.
