Safety
Safety is everyone’s responsibility. All must cooperate to create the safest possible working environment.
Remember that there is potential for harm in any work area. Follow the common-sense safety rules
presented in the multimedia presentation and by your instructor.
Any environment can be hazardous when it is unfamiliar. The Tech-Design laboratory may be a new
environment to you. Make sure you use the equipment in the manner intended by the manufacturer. Your
instructor will provide the necessary introduction to the learning environment and the equipment.
Here are some basic rules that you should make part of your everyday routine:
Make sure your behavior is appropriate to the workplace. (No clowning.)
•
Avoid loose-fitting clothing, jewelry, or other items that could get caught in the equipment.
•
Report any injuries to the instructor.
•
Keep areas clean and uncluttered.
•
Familiarize yourself with proper equipment operation and procedures.
•
Obey all other safety rules set forth by your school, instructor, and equipment manufacturers.
