Training should be a top priority for any company, but sadly it isn’t, your employees need to be trained in every aspect of their job.

40. Using a Fire Extinguisher (PASS)
Pull the pin. This will allow
you to discharge the
extinguisher.
Aim at the base of the fire.
If you aim at the flames (which
is frequently the temptation),
the extinguishing agent will fly
right through and do no good.
You want to hit the fuel.

41. Using a Fire Extinguisher
Squeeze the top handle or lever. This depresses a button that releases the pressurized extinguishing agent in the extinguisher.
Sweep from side to side until the fire is completely out. Start using the extinguisher from a safe distance away, then move forward. Once the fire is out, keep an eye on the area in case it re-ignites.

42. First Aid Requirements
If an accident happens the first thing to do is let the teacher know.
Do not for any reason hide an accident or injury from the teacher.

43. First Aid Requirements
For minor cuts and burns you can use the first aid kit located above the fire extinguisher next to the teacher’s office or you can go to the nurse’s office.
For serious injuries professional assistance will be attained by the teacher.
