What do you think would happen to you if you broke the rules when working in a
professional environment?
When working in a professional environment and you broke the rules, you are likely to be
fired or given a warning.
What impact might breaking these rules in a professional environment have?
a) On the people working with you? It might put people off and they might see you as not
a professional. And if you do get fired, the people you are working with might be
disappointed and worried about a particular project that needs to meet an upcoming
deadline.
b) The people who employ you? The employer would be disappointed and yet frustrated
because they have to find another employee to replace your place, and that might take
some time.

Student Book

Think about any rules that you think should be put in place whenever anyone is working
in an environment where there are potentially dangerous substances or equipment.
Make a list of five golden rules that you think should be followed when working in any
professional creative environment.

2. Always wear goggle and apron when needed
3. Work in an appropriate space and avoid danger at all times
4. Keep machines off after using
5. Keep away from machines when not working on it
With a partner, try to come up with a way of promoting these rules to other people who
work in the creative and media industries to help them keep safe at work. Write your ideas

We can put up posters which have the five golden rules
We can make a presentation about the five golden rules and present it
