  • Description
  • Employee exposure to
    unguarded or inadequately guarded machines is
    prevalent in many workplaces. Consequently,
    workers who operate and maintain machinery suffer
    approximately 18,000 amputations, lacerations,
    crushing injuries, abrasions, and over 800 deaths
    per year. Amputation is one of the most severe
    and crippling types of injuries in the
    occupational workplace, and often results in
    permanent disability.

  • Why Should you Attend
  • Machine hazards can cost
    tremendous amounts of money, if not injuries or
    people's lives. Good safety evaluations can help
    save people from serious injuries, help companies
    to keep their cost down and help protect lives.
    This webinar will give you the tools needed to
    recognize safe work practices in the workplace. 
  • It is impossible to predict what
    people will do around powered machinery, no
    matter what their level of experience or
    training. Effective safeguarding protects against
    both human error and lapses in judgment, as well
    as accidental contact with moving parts.
  • Machines can assist in improving
    production efficiency in the workplace. However,
    these machines have moving parts, sharp edges,
    and hot surfaces with the potential to cause
    severe workplace injuries such as crushed fingers
    or hands, amputations, burns, or blindness.
    Safeguards are essential for protecting workers
    from these preventable injuries. Any machine
    part, function, or process that might cause
    injury must be safeguarded. When the operation of
    a machine may result in a contact injury to the
    operator or others in the vicinity, the hazards
    must be eliminated or controlled.
