Shop floors require following safety procedures to prevent injuries. Workers should learn their workplace layout, be aware of surroundings, take regular breaks wearing protective equipment, and ask for help when needed. Unsafe behaviors like walking on wet floors, spitting, taking shortcuts or blocking exits should be avoided. Speaking up about unsafe conditions and not using tobacco or alcohol are also important for safety.
