TVET Lab Equipment: A Safety Guide for Modern Technical & Vocational Education
Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) courses form the backbone of practical skills development — giving students hands-on experience in trades like electrical, mechanical, civil, mechatronics, and manufacturing. However, a TVET lab isn’t just a training ground — it can be a potential hazard zone if safety is ignored. Whether it’s dealing with live circuits, heavy mechanical tools, welding equipment, hydraulics, or automation rigs — safety must always be the top priority . This guide explains why lab-safety matters, what kinds of risks are common, and what institutions must implement to ensure safe, effective training.
