[Sbs] Reminder about using microwave during shifts

[Mark Jones]

Hi,
          Last year there was an incident with burnt popcorn in one of the counting houses that caused
smoke and the general fire alarm. When this happens the Newport New fire department and lots of
JLab staff are called in to respond. I was asked by the JLab fire safety group, to warn shifters workers
to be very careful about using the microwave since we have sensitive smoke detectors in the counting house.
If we have another incident, then the microwave and coffee machine will probably be taken out of the
counting house.
        Also if there is a fire alarm when on shift , please get out of the building and go to the muster point.
Do not assume that it is a false alarm. It causes confusion for the respondents to the fire alarm when people are
in the building.
       In general, please keep the tables, coffee machine and refrigerator areas clean. We do not have a hired service to clean
these areas. We rely on shift workers to keep the areas clean.

Thanks,
      Mark
