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.
