Hazard analysis and implementing machine safety can be complicated. We’re here to help!
Let’s face it, keeping up with safety standards and Occupational Health and Safety regulations can be a confusing and challenging task. Let us help you understand machine guard safety.
We’re inviting you to attend our informative seminar on such topics as PSR, risk assessment, and CSA standards on guarding.
During this seminar we will review:
- PSR Guidelines – requirements for Ontario
- Initial steps before purchasing a machine
- Steps for existing machinery
- Updates and changes to Z432-16
- Collaborative Robots
- ISO 14119 – the new standard for interlock design
