Good safety practices Goggles
Great safety practice When anyone is working in the lab I wear safety glasses at all times, without being reminded.
Food and drink
My work area is clear of food and drink. If I am hungry or thirsty, I step outside of the lab to eat or drink.
Shorts/sandals. appropriate clothes
I wear the appropriate shoes and clothing. I never wear sandals or shorts to lab, even on hot days. I keep my workspace clean, my book bag and coat are stored in the space under the bench. I always clean up when I am done. Even though I work better listening to music, I don’t have my earphones on because I known it’s a safety hazard. My cell phone is in my book bag. If it rings, I ignore it or leave the room to talk.
