Label Items in your Home, Shop, or Office for Safety
An important step that business and home owners can do to increase safety is to properly label hazardous, emergency and essential items in the home, office, or shop. Portable label printers like K-Sun’s newest LABELShop® BEE3™ can help make this task easy. Professional labels are a great deal more durable than former labeling methods such as masking tape and markers.
Ideas for safety labeling in the home include:
- Label a car seat or booster with your child’s name, date of birth, parent(s) name(s), emergency contact information, allergies, or anything else relevant
- Label skateboards, bicycles, and other recreational equipment with reminder labels such as “wear your helmet”
- Label telephone receivers with codes for voicemail access and emergency numbers
- Label fire routes and exits in the home along with instructions
- Important information such as health and medical files can be identified with color-coded labels so the files can be immediately accessed
- Personal items and toys can be color-coded for each child
- Label each circuit/fuse on electrical and circuit breaker panels with the appropriate area or appliance it serves
- Label other utility valves, such as natural gas with instructions for switch off
- Label any locked storage areas in the home, shop or garage for hazardous materials
- Label the date when batteries in smoke alarms or filters in the heating or air conditioning system need to be changed
This list of what items can and should be labeled is extensive. Safety is extremely important in the home, shop and office, and using a labeling machine can drastically improve safety and increase awareness.
