2.3 Conduct at the workplace
The workplaces must be designed in such a way that each employee has at least 1.5 m² of freedom of
movement. Ensure proper lighting of the workplace (at least 500 lux).
No other workplace should protrude into this area, otherwise there is an injury hazard due to the actions
carried out with circular saw.
The floor must minimise the danger of slipping on wet, greasy or dirty surfaces.
The workplace must comply with local hygiene and workplace regulations.

accidents.
