Take Care Of Your Hands

Friends,

Our hands are our best tools; however, we need to protect them because they don’t come with spare parts. It’s important to prevent hand injuries and the only person that can truly do this is ourselves. Our hands are our responsibility. Knowing where they are is only a fraction of the task. Is the task hot, sharp, moving, or heavy? These simple questions will help to protect us in the long run. Wearing gloves – the right gloves, can also help to protect us when dealing with various hand related hazards. Let’s take care of ourselves and make our personal safety intentional. We can’t rely on luck!
