2. concentrate on your work;
3. be mindful of your safety and the safety of others;
4. dress properly for the job to be done;
5. poise properly when carrying out a particular activity;
6. no horse-playing around in the place of work;
7. use the correct tools and machines for their intended job.
8. wear goggles, a face shield, gloves or some other safety device when you go around machines such as grinders or welders or when handling chemicals;
