Task 2 - Health & Safety

Place	Problem	Prevention
Studio	-wires from lights -extras and things that are being photographed -chairs and tables -equipment	-these should be taped down to prevent people falling or they should be moved to the edge of the room as far away from people working as possible. -make sure these are returned from where you got them so people who also need them can use them and do not leave them lying around so they do not get broken or lost. -make sure chairs are all tucked under tables and out of the way so nobody can trip over them. -make sure that all equipment is turned off and put away before leaving so nobody can use it whilst your away and use things in correctly.
Outdoors	-theft/damage -vehicles/roads -bring a place to store your camera	-if you are using a camera in the street you should always keep it safe around your neck so that nobody can steal it or it cannot be knocked as easy and get damaged. -when outside you need to be aware of crossing the road and moving vehicles so that you don’t get injured. -weather can be a problem when shooting so always bring an appropriate place to store your camera to stop it being damage by weather such as rain.
Darkroom	-chemicals -lack of light -amount of people	-always wear gloves when using the chemicals so you do not damage your hands. -having a small torch would be handy in case you need to get out quickly so you can see and also this means you can see where things are and do not hurt yourself. -you should not allow too many people in the darkroom at once because people may not be able to see where they are going and could cause problems with crowding.
