DANGER of cuts and stab wounds:
Always concentrate when working with scissors. Never touch the cutting edges, but always the handle. Always carry the scissors with the tip pointing downwards and away from the body. Only check the sharpness on the material to be cut, not by hand. Only ever use sharp scissors.
Ensure sufficient distance from other workstations. Use protective equipment if necessary. Only put scissors in designated places and never leave them lying around carelessly. If scissors fall, do not reach for them.
Keep scissors in scissor pockets or holders. Never walk with unprotected scissors. Check the scissors regularly for damage and stop working if there are any defects. Sharpening should only be carried out by experienced persons.
