Is the calculator on a phone allowed to be used during operations?

The use of a calculator on a phone during operations is not allowed to maintain a focus on safety and effective communication. In environments where operations involve critical tasks, distractions must be minimized. The use of personal devices, including smartphones for calculations, can lead to lapses in attention which may compromise safety or lead to errors in communication.

Policies are often in place to ensure that all personnel remain fully attentive to their responsibilities, and the use of a phone could lead to potential distractions or misuse. Equipment and tools designated for operational tasks are typically preferred to ensure consistency and safety. Therefore, the prohibition on using a calculator on a phone during operations is grounded in the need to prioritize operational integrity and safety standards.
