  • Wear your safety shoes when in the workshop – even when not working, there are risks around you that could result in objects falling on your feet.

  • Always carry out a pre-work risk assessment – follow instructions and any other guidance available including signs and notices.

  • Never use a machine or item of work equipment that you have not been trained on and deemed competent to use.

  • Never remove or override a guard – these have been provided for your safety. Only start work if you understand the instructions. If you have any concerns about safety – ask.

  • Be alert to hazards and your surroundings – consider others working near you.

  • Never eat, drink, smoke or apply cosmetics in the workshop.

  • Do not operate machinery in the workshop if you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Note that some prescribed drugs can make you drowsy, so you should consider whether you are affected and inform us accordingly.

  • Do not touch your face when wearing gloves.

  • Cover cuts and grazes and wash your hands before leaving the workshop.
