Safety Council Monthly Meeting 10-14-15

Guardians of the Machine Galaxy ready to defend all evils...
OSHA Machine Guarding Standard
The presentation will focus on basic requirements of OSHA’s Machine Guarding and Hazardous Energy Control Regulations. It will also include examples of deficiencies found with these programs, and solutions for corrective actions.
Moving machine parts have 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 may cause injury must be safeguarded.
 

Speaker: Joe Margetiak, Compliance Safety and Health Officer with the U.S. Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration in the Toledo, Ohio area office.
