SD42 ADST Resources: Wood, Metal & Mechanics Tools

Heads Up for Safety is a booklet specifically designed for elementary Makerspaces, or where light power tools are used. Created by the BCTEA, Ministry of Education, the Industry Training Authority (ITA) and the Workers’ Compensation Board of BC (WCB), this booklet can be used in full or as a guide to helping individual teachers create their own specific safety booklets and tests.

In support of the safety-related learning outcomes prescribed by the ADST curriculum, Heads Up for Safety outlines best practices and minimum standards required in shop classes throughout BC in an effort to keep students safe and to provide them with an awareness of the importance of safety in the workplace.
