Machine Guarding Risk Assessments

Inadequate machine guarding remains a significant cause of many serious workplace incidents in New Zealand. Machinery with improper or insufficient guarding poses a high risk of injury, leading to severe consequences for employees and businesses alike.

Importance of Machine Guarding

Machine guarding is essential for preventing injuries and fatalities caused by contact with moving parts, sharp edges, or hot surfaces on machinery. Properly installed and maintained guards protect workers from these hazards, thereby reducing the risk of accidents. Moreover, effective machine guarding helps businesses comply with regulatory requirements and avoid potential fines and legal issues.
