Machine Guarding Safety Survey
As an employer, you are concerned about maintaining productivity, efficiency, and employee morale. Companies that institute a comprehensive safety and health program are amazed at the positive effects on the company's business and employee attitudes! Our trained professionals will come to your site, perform a Hazard Analysis Safety Audit, and recommend proactive preventive measures.
So what is Hazard Analysis? The first thing to do is to identify potential machine hazards by determining how serious the hazard is. How severely might an employee be injured if this hazard is not reduced. Secondly, how likely is it that the hazard will result in an accident? And finally, how often is the machine used? A combination of all three variables result in an assessment of risk score. The higher the score, the higher the probability of an occurrence with the machine.
Once the hazard analysis has generated a risk score, it needs to be determined if the risk can be eliminated all together. Sometimes the fix is as simple as installing a panel over the hazard with tamper proof hardware. In most cases the safety risk cannot be eliminated so it must be managed. This may be accomplished by guarding the hazard with physical barriers and electronic devices. Barriers and shields are used to reduce the level of risk and probability of an accident.
With our experience in the safety, health and environmental field, Lovegreen Risk Management, LLC works with management to assess potential risk via an on-site loss control audit.
