ABOUT THIS COURSE
This Course Is Intended to Provide Training in The Basic
Concepts and Techniques of Machine Safeguarding. It
Offers an Overview Of the Machine Safeguarding Issues
and an Assortment of Solutions in Popular Use. No
Course Could Keep Pace With All Possible Solutions or
Attempt to Depict Them All. Practical Solutions to
Safeguarding Moving Machine Parts Are As Numerous As
the People Working on Them. The Course Loosely
Follows OSHA Pamphlet 3067, “Concepts and
Techniques of Machine Safeguarding”. Procuring This
Pamphlet Will Aid the Course.

REMEMBER
Any machine part, function, or process
which may cause injury must be
safeguarded. When the operation of a
machine or accidental contact with it can
injure the operator or others in the vicinity,
the hazards must be either controlled or
eliminated.

mere skin contact force a limb into a dangerous
position. The danger increases when projections
such as set screws, bolts, nicks, abrasions, and
projecting keys or set screws are exposed on
rotating parts.

Point-of-Operations Guards :
Defined as: “The area on a machine where work is actually
performed upon the material being processed.”
Complicated by the Number and Complexity of Machines in Use
Must Fully Safeguard the Employee
Must Allow Production to Continue
Hazard Analysis Is Usually Required
If Poorly Designed, Built, or Installed Guards May Create a
Hazard Rather Than Eliminating One.

Guard Material:
Under Many Circumstances, Metal Is the Best Material for
Guards. Guard Framework Is Usually Made From
Structural Shapes, Pipe, Bar, or Rod Stock. Filler Material
Generally Is Expanded or Perforated or Solid Sheet Metal
or Wire Mesh. It May Be Feasible to Use Plastic or Safety
Glass Where Visibility Is Required.
Guards Made of Wood Generally Are Not Recommended
Because of Their Flammability and Lack of Durability and
Strength. However, in Areas Where Corrosive Materials Are
Present, Wooden Guards May Be the Better Choice.

TIPS FOR USING CONTRACTORS
REMEMBER, YOU CONTROL YOUR FACILITY OR AREA!
REVIEW THEIR PROCEDURES WITH THEM BEFORE
STARTING THE JOB!
DETERMINE THEIR SAFETY PERFORMANCE RECORD!
DETERMINE WHO IS IN CHARGE OF THEIR PEOPLE!
DETERMINE HOW THEY WILL AFFECT YOUR EMPLOYEES!

WORK AT WORKING SAFELY
Training is the key to success in managing safety in the
work environment. Attitude is also a key factor in
maintaining a safe workplace. Safety is, and always will
be a team effort, safety starts with each individual
employee and concludes with everyone leaving at the
end of the day to rejoin their families.
