Protect Your Assets By Improving Plant Safety
December 21st, 2012
“Protect Your Assets”
Not having an accident doesn’t mean a shop is safe! The cost of safeguarding a machine more than outweighs the consequences of machine downtime, OSHA fines, litegation, medical bills, workman’s compensation, and most importantly injury to your employees. Even the most experienced machine operators get hurt everyday due to the lack of machine guarding.
Here are some things to consider:
•Is your company safety conscious?
•Does your company have an active Safety program?
•Are operators allowed to shut machines down for Safety issues?
•Is Safety as important as production rates?
•Has a Safety company assessed the risk of your machinery?
