Executive Summary
In this safety plan I talk about the entire thing we have done, to make possible a good working ambient. From the beginning of this project I investigated the necessary safety rules for work in a lab, the deferent types of pictograms needed for work in a lab, the types of pipes, and the instructions that explain what to do in case of have contact with a danger fluid or be wounded with a tool. With the creation of this project, all the team needed to certificated in first aids, thats a plus because its a thing that can be useful not only for this event also in the future, because we can use the information obtained for help other people. When I start to investigate about the different types of extinguishers, pictograms, rules of the lab, etc I realized that I was learning a lot of things very interesting and useful and as the safety captain of my team was and is my responsibility to transmit this knowledge for all the team. This is the first time I do a project of this kind, and it teach me about responsibility with other persons, with me and with the society in general, works like this are those that help you to grow and I for that me and my team are very grateful with FIRST give us the opportunity for participate in this event.

Introduction
Mission
The mission is create responsible and autodidacts persons in the educational aspect to promote the science and technology, and with this obtain good opportunities of job, and new experiences.
Vision
The vision is to be the first generation of Morelias TecMilenio University that attend to the FIRST event, and with the obtained experience to be able to help the future generations in the creation of similar projects, with responsibility and committed.
Objectives
The objectives of this safety plan are: 1. Keep safe to all the team before and after the competition, letting them know the necessary rules for work in the robotic lab. 2. Describe all the types of risk that the tools and the fluids represent. 3. Describe the correct use of all the tools and substance of the lab. 4. Show how all the team contributed with security social events before the event and explain which is the plan of security that we going to follow in Canada.

Safety outreach
General Working Rules
1. Wear eye protection in every moment (this rule is for everyone that enter in the lab). 2. No play with the tools and run in the lab. 3. Have the lab clean for a good and safe working experience. 4. Work only in the designated area. 5. Always return the tools to the respective tools zone. 6. No wear loose clothing or jewelry when using tools. 7. Tie back the hair of the girls or boys (if is the case). 8. Wash hands after the use of lab substances. 9. Never touch a rotating tool. 10.

Precautions
Electric
1. Check all the cords of the tools and make sure that they cant cause short-circuit. 2. Dont pull the cords of the tools. 3. Avoid the use of extensions. 4. Dont plug an extension into a power strip, a power strip to another power strip or an extension to other extension. This for enjoy of a good working experience.
Tools
1. In every moment and instructor have to be in the lab for the supervision of the students. 2. All the students must have previous experience or basic notions about the use of all the tools in the lab. 3. If the students dont know how to use the tools, the instructor needs to explain the function of that tool to all the team. 4. The whole team must demonstrate their responsibility while they are in the lab. 5. All the tools must be kept in good working order. 6. The student with more ability using the tools can help to other student without experience. 7. Where gloves when using gloves.

Pictograms
In the lab we use all the pictograms necessaries for keep the team constantly warning. The pictograms used were: Hazard symbols and Hazard warnings (Extremely Flammable, highly flammable, flammable, very corrosive, corrosive, irritant, harmful, toxic and very toxic.) Prohibition notices. Mandatory Instructions. Fire Precaution Notice. Emergency exit.

Pipes
The colors and types of the pipes are those presented below: GREEN: RED: GREY: YELLOW WITH RED: Water Water Vapor Air Combustible monoxide, gasses) Gasses acetylene, (Carbon inorganic
YELLOW WITH BLACK: ORANGE: VIOLET: BROWN WITH RED: BROWN WITH BLACK: BLUE:
Combustible Gasses (Carbon dioxide, sulfuric dioxide) Acids Lyes Combustible liquids No combustible liquids Oxygen

Extinguishers
In the lab we have the extinguisher Class C because it has the specific substances to extinguish all the fires related with the electronic systems. The types of extinguisher are 4, the class A, B, C and D. CLASS A FIRES CLASS B FIRES Wood, paper, cloth, trash and other ordinary materials. Gasoline, oil, paint, and other flammable liquids. Using in fires involving live electrical equipment without danger to the operator. Combustible metals combustible metal alloys. and
First aid
During this project all the team attended to first aid classes at Cruz Roja Morelia, everyone took a course that contained the next topics: First evaluation RCP Hemorrhages Patient in Shock Wounds Burns Fractures Mobilization and transfer of patients.

Promoting safety
To promote the safety we have given little courses to elementary schools and high schools, explained what is a robot, our mission and vision as a team, and what we have been done in the elaboration of the robot, what rules we follow for work safely in the lab with no accidents and what we have to do in case of one.
Engineering
In the structural part we used the pre-established instructions of FIRST for make the base of the robot, also for the construction of the Frisbee launcher we always had present the correct measures, necessary to compete without being disqualified, and we installed the protection that the robot needed have around.

Electric
For all the electric material installed in the robot, I made sure that the robot follow the restrictions of the correct location of the cables, also I was checking the cables for replace them in case of one of them beech suffered damaged, was bad located or had other problems.
Safety during the competition In the competition we know that are rules to follow, like dont insult other teams, dont provoke fights, dont modify or touch the others team robots and we always must have the specified clothing and protection wear like glasses and closed shoes.
Conclusion The safety plan is one of the most important parts of this project because it describes the behavior that all the team must have at the time of the competition, before and after. With this safety plan the team can be guided reading and apply the rules written here for have a good and safe competition without any accidents.
