Workshop and Studio Safety

It is your sole responsibility to leave your work area tidy; all studio spaces, desks, workbenches and machines should be left in a clean condition and tools, equipment and materials returned to their proper place. Leave it how you would expect to find it.

Damage or defects in the workplace, workshops, studios, offices, or machinery and equipment must be reported immediately to the supervising staff member.
