Add hazards to work orders to alert your employees to of all the dangers (bodily harm, environmental issues like spills) they face when performing required maintenance.

Add hazards to work orders to alert your employees to of all the dangers (bodily harm, environmental issues like spills) they face when performing required maintenance. Attach precautions to these hazards so they can safeguard themselves and their surroundings from these potential dangers.

Add a precaution to turn that equipment off and remove from the power outlet before performing repairs on that electrical equipment.
