Preventing Kitchen Accidents

Kitchen Safety Basics Do not let hair, sleeves, or apron dangle: could catch fire or get tangled in appliances. Keep your mind focused in what you are doing. Prevent clutter: put items back when you are finished with them. Close drawer/cabinets after you open them Use the right tool for the job Store heavy items on low shelves

Preventing Falls Many accidents occur because of what is on the floor. To prevent falls, keep the floor clean and free of clutter. Wipe up spills, splatters, and peelings Don’t wear untied shoes, floppy slippers, or long clothing.

Handling Sharp Edges Cuts are an everyday hazard for the cook. Keep knives sharp and use them properly Use a drawer divider or knife rack for sharp tools Don’t try to catch a falling knife Don’t soak knives or sharp items in a sink with other utensils.

Preventing Fires and Burns The range is the most likely place for fires or burns. 1. Use pot holders or oven mitts 2. When uncovering a pan; lift away from your face. 3. Use only pots/pans in good condition 4. Keep pan handles turned toward the back or middle to prevent spills/burns. 5. Keep flammable items away from range 6. Do not use plastic items near range 7. Arrange oven racks properly before turning on heat 8. Don’t reach into a hot oven; pull out rack 9. Make sure to turn off appliances when finished 10. Never leave appliances unattended.

If A Fire Starts Range top or electric skillet: Turn off the heat. Put the cover on the pan or pour salt or baking soda on the flames. **Never use water –the grease will splatter and burn you. Oven, broiler, microwave, toaster oven: Turn off or disconnect the appliance. Keep the oven door closed until the fire goes out. ***Do not open the oven door!!! *** NEVER attempt to carry a pan with burning contents.

Handling Electricity and Chemicals Electricity Water and electricity don’t mix. Combined they can cause serious shock. Never use an appliance with wet hands. Keep all appliances away from water. Avoid damage to electrical cords. Even a single exposed wire can cause a fire. Never try to disconnect an appliance by pulling on the cord. Use outlets properly Plugging in to many appliances can cause a fire Use care with any plugged-in appliance. Never put your fingers or a kitchen took inside an appliance that is plugged in. May cause shock, or injury. Watch for problems. Don’t try to use a damaged appliance.
