General Issues to Always Look For

Cords: Damaged extension cords, chains of extension cords, Male prong missing, proper wire size Lockouts: when doing work on any piece of power equipment, proper precautions must be taken to ensure the power source has been eliminated and locked out. If its just a matter of unplugging the cord from the wall, the individual doing the work must have a constant view of the unplugged cord. Safe work procedures: safe work procedures must be readily available at all times Spills: ensure anything spilled has been cleaned up to avoid slipping hazards and exposure, a procedure should be in place to remedy accidental spills Work benches: work space on benches should be adequate to work safely Walkways: designated walk ways and safety areas should be clearly marked Combustibles: a collection of combustible materials such as oil rags, cardboard or garbage should be eliminated Equipment: equipment used must be certified and in good working condition. Anything broken should be flagged and not used. PPE: requirement signs should be posted on doors to shops and requirements MUST be enforced Training: all students need to be trained on any safety issues and equipment they are expected to use. It is a good idea to also do a follow up refresher training mid term. Eyewash: eyewashes should be flushed often to avoid dirt build up and to ensure they are working adequately Distraction: it is crucial to ensure students are totally focused on their tasks. All distractions should be avoided. Containers: any container that holds chemicals MUST be properly labeled and stored High hazard areas should be clearly marked and identified, either with signs or floor taping A program for servicing and preventive maintenance should be in place Signs: relevant warning signs relating to ALL workshop hazards should be displayed Waste: waste materials should be stored appropriately, and a procedure should be in place to legally dispose of the waste Housekeeping if upon inspection you notice that lighting is not adequate, doors dont close properly, or something is damaged, make note of it to ensure the right people are informed Clutter walkways, doorways and places where hazardous materials are stored should be free of clutter to avoid trips etc
