week 10

I have to admit that Takapuna brakes have the worst ventilation system I have ever seen. One day a car with burning oil problem drove in and operated less than 30 seconds inside the workshop. It took at least half an hour to get the smoke out. And also any car with fuel consumption problem once operated inside the workshop, you would smell the exhaust gas everywhere inside the workshop. And sometimes the gas irritates your eyes and makes you feel headache. As we know when an engine is running, it produces carbon monoxide, a toxic and poisonous gas which when inhaled can cause dizziness, sickness, loss of consciousness and death. There is  only a window around the walls for the working area and it can only be opened on both lower corners which have very limited effect on ventilation.To prevent serious injury or death from carbon monoxide poisoning, the workshop should install exhaust extractor or exhaust baffles. and also the only light sources are the main entrance and the window. The hoist 3 always has enough illumination. However during cloudy weather hoist 2 and 3 are quite dark which is below the minimum of 70% required brightness in the workplace. Therefore lighting equipment has to be used.
