Machine Guarding

Machine safety programs to protect employees

MACHINERY CONSULTANTS FOR OSHA MACHINE GUARDING SAFETY

OSHA has established standards for machine guarding to protect employees from potential and severe injuries. Unguarded machines including the parts, such as belts, blades, fly-wheel shafts, pulleys, ropes, chain drives, gears, and related functions and processes can cause crushed fingers or hands, amputations, burns, or blindness. Yet these hazards can be prevented if your organization follows OSHA machine guarding safety standards.

Our safety consultants will assess your facility equipment and determine which machine guarding measures and practices are required to create a safe work environment. We focus on recommendations for improvement and training in compliance with OSHA and state laws, including Minnesota-specific OSHA regulations for machine guarding.
