and damage to any person or to any object in a work area.

A safe work space is clean, systematized, and well-lit. A hazardous computer

component must dispose or recycled properly. Make it a habit to follow guidelines that

Fire Safety Guidelines

Make sure that a fire extinguisher is rated for class A, B, & C and it is within a
reasonable distance from your computer installation. If you leave your computer on and
unattended for whatever reason, turn off the monitor during your absence. Monitors
generate high voltage internally which is potential to start an electrical fire.
Note: The switch for the monitor is usually located at the bottom, side or rear of
the screen. Turning off the monitor leaves the computer On and will not disrupt the
computers operation or compromise data losses. When you return, simply turn the
monitors back on ant wait for few seconds to warm up. Ensure that your facilities meet
local fire safety codes.
When working with computer components, always consider the possibility of an
accidental fire and prepare how to react.
If there is a fire, you should follow these safety procedures
• Make sure to know all the locations of all exits for a fire escape route
before beginning any work.
https://www.123rf.com/clipart-vector/emergency_exit.html?sti=mjganq2vxyj4pnqf37|
&mediapopup=99439177

• Take a minute to think which way you would go to escape your place.
• Never fight a fire that is out of control or not contained.
