Safety Rules and Regulations in the Workshop Environment - JSS1 Basic technology Lesson Note

Adhering to safety rules and regulations is crucial in the workshop. These rules are put in place to protect individuals from harm and minimise the risk of accidents. Wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), such as safety goggles, gloves, and closed-toe shoes, is the first line of defence against potential injuries. Furthermore, following instructions and guidelines when operating tools and machinery helps prevent accidents and ensures smooth workflow. Maintaining cleanliness and organisation in the workshop is also essential to reduce the risk of tripping hazards and other accidents. In the event of any safety concerns or incidents, it is imperative to report them promptly to a teacher or supervisor for proper resolution.
