SAFETY FIRST

1. People working with machines, sharp tools,

motors, electricity or inflammable material must
always be careful and always on guard.

2. They must do what they are told so as to avoid

accidents. The things they do to avoid accidents are
called safety precautions.

3. To save his eyes, the welder must use his mask.

The mask may make his face hot but it is better for
him to be uncomfortable than to hurt his eyes
forever.
4. The electrician must check that the current is
tumed off before he starts to handle radios and other
electrical machinery

5. The fitter must use a machine with guard son

the moving parts where his clothing may catch.

6. Those who work near or with inflammable

material must always have the thought of fire in the
back of their minds. They must not smoke or strike
matches.
7. These are some things we can all do to avoid
accidents wherever we work or whatever we work
at.

8. We should always keep watch on machines,

for we are the brain of the machine they cannot
think and when something goes wrong, they will
not stop; we must stop them.

9. We must avoid loose clothing which might get

caught in machines and take us against the
machine.
10. We must drive trucks and cars carefully,
watching always, but especially where we cannot
see far, where people, animals or cars may come
suddenly upon us.

11. Accidents happen more frequently when we are

tired towards the end of the working day. That is the
time to be especially careful and to see that all safety
precautions are taken.
