Check Your Exit Doors!

Keeping exit routes in your factory clear and well-marked is crucial for employee safety and OSHA compliance. As per OSHA standard 1910.37, make sure exit routes are always free from obstructions, with no materials or equipment blocking the way. Avoid routing exits through lockable rooms or dead-end corridors, and use stairs or ramps where needed. Ensure all emergency safeguards like sprinkler systems and alarms are fully functional. Exit signs should be lit, easily visible, and marked "Exit" with letters at least six inches high. Proper lighting and directional signs are key to guiding everyone safely in an emergency. By following these guidelines, you can ensure a safer workplace and compliance with OSHA regualtions.
