There are two important safety measures that can be taken at very low cost. The first is to equip shelves with guard rails to keep reagent bottles from falling. The height of such rails should be adapted to the size of the containers. This is a requirement in California. The second is to fasten tall objects to the wall, a simple and inexpensive procedure. With bookcases, for example, the books may fall out but the case will stay in position and not tumble down with the whole load.

Awareness Barriers An awareness barrier does not prevent access to the point-of-operation but it does alert people to a hazardous area or operation. It may work either of two ways. It may be a guard rail, gate or similar barrier that prevents easy entry or access to the hazardous area. A barrier may contact any part of the body of a person exposed to the point-of-operation to let them know that they are near or approaching a hazard. An awareness barrier should have a warning to explain the machine s hazards and the purpose of the barrier.
