activities of persons at work, to establish the National Council
for Occupational Safety and Health and for matters connected
therewith.

Dos & Donts (2)

Dos and Donts to prevent accidents:

Wear proper attire

i.e., workshop jacket & proper shoes. Loose clothing,

finger rings and other accessories are some possible
sources of accident.

Footwear must be worn all the time to

prevent injury molten aluminum, hot metal
chips, slip
Be attentive while you are in the workshop.

Dos & Donts (3)

Dos and Donts to prevent accidents:

Do not run in the workshop. Be calm but

serious.
Pay attention to details. Always think before
you carry out any step.
Do not start any machine before obtaining
instructions from your instructor.
Make sure you understand your machine &
the procedures before you start working.
Check your vicinity. Ensure the floor is clean
& clear from oils, obstructions and debris.

Dos & Donts (4)

Dos and Donts to prevent accidents

Locate the Emergency button or foot pedal.

In the event of any accident, switch off the
machine using the Emergency button.
Never let anyone handle the starting switch
for you.
Ensure work-pieces are properly clamped or
secured to the machine. Remove any loose
parts such as chuck key, vice handle, etc.
flying chuck key (faint) & flying work-piece
Always wear goggles where fine chips are
produced bloated eye.

Dos & Donts (5)

Dos and Donts to prevent accidents:

Use machine guards all the time.

When you are operating any machine, stand
at a proper distance.
Do not use hand(s) or finger(s) to stop moving
or rotating machines or parts of machines
legs between rollers
Do not set the tools when the machine is
running. You may break the tool and worse
still, you may injure yourself.
Never handle machines or work-pieces during
running. Stop the machine first.

Dos & Donts (6)

Dos and Donts to prevent accidents:

Do not distract a person while he or she is

operating a machine. Wait till he or she
completes the operation & stop the machine
before doing so Do not be playful NO
PRACTICAL JOKES
Do not use hands to clear metal chips 600
~ 700OC (chip-tool interface)
Do not take measurement while machine or
work-piece is moving
Do not blow chips, dust from vices, etc. lest
they may get into your eyes.

Dos & Donts (7)

Dos and Donts to prevent accidents:

When facing with problems or uncertainty,

stop the machine & get clarification and help.
Stop any machine before leaving it. Never
leave any machine running unattended.
Beware of high temperatures associated with
metal chips, welding, heat treatment &
casting activities
Beware of high voltages. Ensure all
machines are properly earthed. Do not
interfere with electrical equipment or
connections.

DOS & DONTS (8)

Dos and Donts to prevent accidents:

Protect your eyes from bright lights & ears from

loud sounds
Plan your time properly. Working under
unnecessary pressure may lead to accidents
Grinding tools must be set up by experienced
personnel. Grinding tools rotate at great
circumferential speed
Damaged grinding tools & wheels must not be
used
Do not run any machining exceeding the maximum
allowable speeds
Beware of sharp or ragged edges

Dos & Donts (9)

Dos and Donts to prevent accidents
Report any injury, cut or scratch, no matter how
trivial it may be to your instructor
Clean the tools, cutters, machines & surrounding
area from debris, metal chips, oils, grease &
coolants whenever necessary and after
completing your work
Clean working + good order = safety
Return all tools to store or original cabinet
Never handle heavy objects unaided.
The above list is not exhaustive. Good
understanding, calmness and common sense
prevail.

the second most frequent
safety violation in industry
today.

Prevent workplace accidents by paying attention
to safety housekeeping considerations.
Good safety housekeeping can significantly
reduce accidents and injuries in any type of work
environment.
By developing good safety habits / by being
aware of their work environment and any hazards
associated with it, employees can help to create a
much safer workplace.
Safety awareness
