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.
