CHARGING AND USING A PHONE

Many of us charge our phones and use them at the same time to receive or make phone calls. Many may even argue that they have been doing so for more than a decade and nothing has ever happened to them. Well, this is luck. In safety it only takes an unlucky second for you to experience a significant incident after a million hours of no incident.
My recommendation is that you unplug your phone before using it. It could explode in your face! Be safe.

EMERGENCY DOOR

Emergency doors are doors that are dedicated for quick exit from rooms or occupational work areas in case of an emergency. This emergency is usually a fire outbreak. More so, this dedicated door should be used for all emergency situations were quick exit from a room is required.
Some safety tips on the proper use of emergency doors are:
1. Emergency doors must have a visible lable that says "emergency doors" or "emergency exit."
2. Emergency doors must never be obstructed.
3. Emergency doors must be provided with a push bar.
4. Emergency doors must be designed such that they can only be opened from inside the room.
5. Emergency doors must never be used a pedestrian doors.
6. Emergency doors must open into a safe open area.

Make emergency doors available in work areas and keep them ready for use.

HARD HATS EXPIRE

Did you know that hard hats expire? Well it does. Before I explain, allow me to explain what a hard hat is and what it is used for. This is of course for the benefit of anyone who does not know exactly what this piece of safety equipment is.

What is a Hard Hat?
A hard hat is a safety personal protective equipment that is often made of plastic. It is worn on the head and is supposed to serve as protection for the head. In other words, it protects the head from impact from objects falling from above or at height.
You will likely find contractors in construction areas using this piece of personal protective equipment.

All hard hats expires. The expiry dates vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. You can find the expiry dates on the inside of the hard hats. The hard part is, there is no standard for presenting this expiry dates. I have seen numerous methods that manufacturers use to present their expiry dates. Notwithstanding, users must know these methods. If you need help identifying the expiry date on your hard hat, you can send me a mail on eaglesgambit@gmail.com. Be safe.
