operating a computer. It is vital to stay safe in every working conditions. Whether you
are a professional or a beginner staying safe must be put into priority to prevent
troubles and damage to any person or to any object in a work area.

A safe work space is clean, systematized, and well-lit. A hazardous computer

component must dispose or recycled properly. Make it a habit to follow guidelines that
direct how to dispose specific items. When an individual violates these rules, there
can be legal penalties.
To keep you safe, this module delivers the general and fire safety strategies that
protects the technician and the equipment.

General Safety Strategies

Here are some general safety guidelines:

The most important one is SWITCHING OFF. The first step is to stop the flow
of electricity into your computer.

Fire Safety Guidelines

Make sure that a fire extinguisher is rated for class A, B, & C and it is within a
reasonable distance from your computer installation. If you leave your computer on
and unattended for whatever reason, turn off the monitor during your absence.
Monitors generate high voltage internally which is potential to start an electrical fire.
Note: The switch for the monitor is usually located at the bottom, side or rear
of the screen. Turning off the monitor leaves the computer On and will not disrupt the
computers operation or compromise data losses. When you return, simply turn the
monitors back on ant wait for few seconds to warm up. Ensure that your facilities meet
local fire safety codes.
When working with computer components, always consider the possibility of
an accidental fire and prepare how to react.
If there is a fire, you should follow these safety procedures
• Make sure to know all the locations of all exits for a fire escape route
before beginning any work.

https://www.123rf.com/clipart-
vector/emergency_exit.html?sti=mjganq2vxyj4pnqf37|&mediapopup=99439177

• Take a minute to think which way you would go to escape your place.
• Never fight a fire that is out of control or not contained.
