Good housekeeping is essential to
provide a safe work place. It will result in lesser accidents and
will reduce fire hazards as well.
Cleaning up the work area is part
of the job. A job is not completed until the residue or tools are
cleaned up.
Habits of good housekeeping, such
as putting away all tools and supplies and keeping floors clean and
free of debris, can go a long way toward reducing accidents.
Be sure that doors, passages and
electrical panels, switches, etc. are not blocked in any way.
Never clean out a pit without assistance.
Use proper tools. Don't remove material
by hand. Be carefull to avoid broken glass or sharp metal points.
