Description

 

User responsibilities, and what you must do as an owner and provider of the work equipment.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

 

·       There are many thing to consider when providing, or using equipment for work, and with that comes a lot of responsibility and also legal obligations.

·       First of all you have to recognise, that you as a provider of the equipment, are duty bound to ensure that your employee's are safe.

·       As a provider of work equipment, you must inspect it after it has been installed and before being put into service for the first time, or assembled at new location.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

·       You cannot discharge this responsibility onto the manufacturers, you as a provider of this equipment must understand these obligations.

·       If you employ five or more people you shall record the risk assessment and any significant findings.

·       The aim of the training is to close the gap between what they know now, and what level required to operate the machinery,

The 10 essential characteristics that need to be present on the declaration of conformity

 

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

 

·       One of the most important documents you will look over, is the Declaration of Conformity.

·       It's not something to be shoved in a drawer without reading it

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

·       Once you know what to look for it is easy to spot something that might give you problems further down the line

·       As a receiver of the equipment it is essential that you are diligent in your choice of machinery, if you get this wrong then you could end up with something that is not as safe and compliant as you first thought.

Description

 

How to approach risk assessments for machinery safety.

 

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

 

·       The very first thing we must do is to is get a feel for the machine

·       How you determine where a score sits in relation to the level of risk, is your risk profile.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

·       If the process of carrying out a risk assessment creates a situation of fear of challenge, or confusion, then it can end up doing more harm than good.

·       A subjective risk assessment might identify unrealistic scenarios that are not foreseeable or practicable

·       The risk assessment will determine what that initial level of risk is, and the evaluation will determine whether or not to proceed to the next level

·       By the very nature of having a group of people assess a hazard, it removes the subjectivity from the issue.

Description

 

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

 

·       Every machine that claims any sort of conformity must at the very least have a nameplate on it.

·       There are certain characteristics that must be present on it.

·       As soon as you physically receive your machine you need to check that the paperwork matches the actual machine and there are simple checks that you can make to understand and get a feel for what you have purchased.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

·       Without the nameplate there will at some point be doubt between the documentation you have and the machine it refers to.

Description

 

 

 

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

 

·       For the design of machinery, not only are there are many different titles of standards but there are also different standard types

·       Apart from a name and number which might be obvious to most people, they have an extra classification or type as they are known.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

·       Used in the correct way and you will not only have a safe design, but you will also be able to presume conformity to the appropriate directive or regulations.

·       There is no need to ever guess how to design machines,

Description

 

Your role in the machinery life-cycle, what they are, and how your responsibilities could change.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

 

·       When considering your role look at the short term involvement, what is your immediate function with this machine?

·       A user will be a person who will benefit from the function of the machinery as intended by the manufacturer.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

·       As an importer you must ensure that the product isn't sold or advertised unless it meets conformity and that it has the appropriate markings.

·       If you install equipment you must follow the manufacturer's instructions. But you have a responsibility to ensure that if you are altering an existing machine or installation that it is safe.

Description

The most commonly used definitions for machinery compliance.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

 

·       Having a grasp of the basic definitions used in machinery safety and compliance, sets you up for a deeper understanding of the process.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

 

·       If you can remember and appreciate the following brief definitions, when they come up in the near future, you will already know more than most.

·       ‘reasonably foreseeable misuse’ means the use of machinery in a way not intended in the instructions for use, but which may result from readily predictable human behaviour.

Description

What machinery risk assessments are and importantly what they are not.

 

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

·       A risk assessment should never be treated as a box ticking exercise

·       The aim of the risk assessment process, is to assess the scenario's, in which the machine could become dangerous. 

·       It is this risk assessment that drives the solution

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

·       Different people see different things, so it's really important that everyone has an opportunity to contribute to the process.

Risk assessments are not a one stop process, where you do it once, stick it on a hard drive then never look at it again.

·       It sets you ahead of the competition who might not go as deep as you will in your design.

The series of these podcast is going to cover what machinery safety is, why it matters, how you can apply engineering solutions to solve problems while also keeping them safe and complaint with the relevant characteristics and requirements.

 

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

·       Machinery safety is a niche of general health and safety, and requires specialist knowledge to be able to apply it correctly.

·       Machinery safety isn't guess work or about who can shout louder or puff their chest the biggest or wow with qualifications to win an argument.

·       There are calculations, charts and tables to interpret that can be a minefield to understand,

·       A safe reliable machine will be more in keeping with a business that wants to grow and innovate, there is no need to cut corners on machinery safety.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

·       How we do machinery safety is critical to our own personal safety, well-being, our business, our jobs and how we live.

·       We can only build upon what we know at the time, and reference those who have taken the time to investigate a deeper understanding around the subject.
