shop safety
Store hazard prevention
Shop safety refers to practices and precautions that prevent injury in workshops, garages, and industrial spaces where tools and machinery are used.
It encompasses protective equipment, proper tool handling, ventilation, and awareness of hazards like sharp edges, moving parts, and electrical risks.
The instructor spent the first week drilling shop safety into us before we touched any power tools.
