How should flammable materials be stored on job sites?

Storing flammable materials in designated, ventilated safety cabinets is crucial for ensuring safety on job sites. These cabinets are specifically designed to contain potential fires, limiting the spread of flames and preventing dangerous chemical reactions. Proper ventilation is essential as it helps to dissipate fumes that could accumulate and create hazardous conditions.

Using general storage units or keeping flammable materials under workbenches poses significant risks, as both options do not provide the necessary fire containment or proper ventilation needed to manage volatile substances safely. Additionally, while locking materials in a drawer may help prevent theft, it does not address the critical issue of fire safety and could even exacerbate risks by potentially trapping fumes. Therefore, the correct practice is to utilize dedicated safety cabinets that comply with safety regulations to minimize hazards associated with flammable materials.
