TEACHING METHOD(S) Informative and introductory plenary session with all participants N° OF PARTICIPANTS 10-15 DURATION (in minutes) 3 hrs MATERIALS NEEDED Paper, pen, pencil for taking notes. PREPARATION STEPS The trainer introduces the topic of safety in a ceramic workshop, using a PowerPoint presentation that is easy for learners to understand. The presentation will deal with main aspects related to the safety of the place as well as the correct use of materials (being present in ceramic laboratories different chemical and even toxic materials, such as coloured powders) The correct information of learners on safety measures is an initial and fundamental precondition for the implementation of any ceramic workshops and so to avoid potential risks. Clear and precise instructions must also be provided, so as to know how to manage possible incidents and anomalies that put safety at risk IMPLEMENTATION STEPS Introduction Specific risks to people’s health and safety may also arise during ceramic workshops, in relation to the nature of the exercises, the hazardous nature of the equipment and materials used and possible exposure to physical, chemical and biological agents. Artists, artisans, designers, trainers and trainees in general are exposed to a number of potentially hazardous materials and processes in the ceramic studios. Knowledge of hazards and proper studio procedures, coupled with an attitude of respect and mental alertness, will ensure that our workspaces are safe and healthy. Both the trainers and the trainees have the responsibility to be physically and mentally alert when managing clay, aware of safety and health issues, follow rules and procedures designed to protect them, and report all incidents or accidents so that steps may be taken to prevent recurrence.   General rules and main procedures Both the trainers and the trainees review, discuss, and follow the rules and procedures outlined in this lesson plan Personal protective equipment will be explained and demonstrated at the beginning of each ceramic workshop, if needed All ceramic workshops shall keep appropriate First Aid equipment and supplies Both the trainers and the trainees shall wear hearing, eye, face, and personal protective equipment Within a ceramic workshops, all installations and devices, should undergo regular technical maintenance in order to eliminate, as quickly as possible, any defects detected which may affect the safety and health of both the trainers and the trainees   Manage emergencies In the event of an emergency, call the police or other emergency numbers In the event of fire: sound the alarm, contain, or fight the fire only if possible and practical to do so, evacuate yourself and others from the building. All accidents, including those which result in injuries requiring only First Aid or those which only involve property damage shall be reported to faculty members in each ceramic workshop verbally as well as using the Incident & Accident Form Any illness or physical impairment which may be related to your artwork (e.g. skin problem, headaches, nausea, etc.) shall be reported to your tutor immediately.   Ensure safety for participants with disabilities During ceramic workshops, we must ensure that floors, in general, are fixed, stable and non-slip as well as free of protuberances, hollows or dangerous inclined planes, where spills of liquids or putrescible substances are routinely expected the surface must be even impermeable and with a sufficient slope to quickly direct liquids towards the collection and drainage points; if they remain wet, they must be permanently equipped with pallets or grating (if workers are not provided with suitable waterproof footwear). Windows, skylights, and ventilation devices in general should be safely opened, closed, adjusted and secured by workers.   Other factors to be taken into consideration to ensure safety during ceramic workshops Clear instructions on where the emergency exits are located must be provided to all participants in the ceramics workshop. Emergency exits must be clearly indicated by emergency signals and panels Clear instructions on how to provide first aid in the event of accidents must be provided to all participants in pottery workshops. Possible accidents involve burns, cuts and more serious injuries. Its best to have a first aid kit in your studio, and can even be mounted in the wall. To avoid potential risks, protect both your hands and your feets. It is highly recommended to handle wear gloves when handling clay or glaze Adequate ventilation conditions of the spaces must be ensured, being exposed to the high temperatures of the kilns during ceramic workshops. Also to take into account the level of humidity of the rooms Take into account the lighting conditions of the rooms, trying to prefer natural lighting over artificial lighting DEBRIEFING/REFLECTION Trainers have the responsibility to describe the working area, going through the laboratory and showing to the trainees all safety protocols and emergency tools.  TIPS AND HINTS Trainers can distribute a hand-on printed manual and/or printed PPT slides to the participants before starting the activities SAFETY MEASURES All the above REFERENCES AND SOURCES https://sites.ed.gov/backtoschool/health-safety/ https://ceramic.school/how-to-organize-your-pottery-studio/ https://www.firstaidforschools.com/first-aid-in-schools/     ACTIVITY TITLE Safety @ceramic studio – manage and prevent hazard during ceramic workshops AIM The aim of this activity is to provide knowledge and useful information on how to manage and prevent specific risks regarding materials and products for ceramic processing (including risks arising from the reaction of such products with air, fire, etc.) as well as preventing different types of hazards that may occur.
