Machinery Guarding Compliance Audit

Machinery guarding is an important part of machinery safety, as it helps to protect workers from potential hazards posed by moving parts of machinery. It includes physical barriers such as guards, enclosures or electro sensitive protection devices such as light curtains and laser scanners that help to prevent workers from coming into contact with dangerous areas of a machine. Machinery guarding also includes the use of safety interlock switches, which are designed to stop a machine when a worker opens the guard. By combining physical and electrical safety equipment, machinery guarding helps to ensure a safe working environment and reduce the risk of injury or death.
