operate the laser equipment.
b) Proof of qualification of the laser equipment operator shall be available
and in possession of the operator at all times.
c) Areas in which these lasers are used should be posted with an appropriate
laser warning sign.
d) Precautions should be taken to ensure that persons do not look directly,
with or without an optical instrument, into the beam.
e) When not in use the laser product should be stored in a location where
unauthorized personnel cannot gain access.

tionally directed at mirror like (specular) surfaces (e.g. mirrors, metal
surfaces, windows). But, more importantly, at flat or concave mirror-like
surfaces.
