MACHINE GUARDING INSPECTIONS & MAINTENANCE

Designed to

protect operators from injury

Governing Body

OSHA/MOL

Machine guarding is an essential and necessary requirement for schools to ensure students and staff are safe. Lack of machine guarding and inadequate lockout procedures are among the top four causes of workplace accidents in Ontario. The number and severity of injuries continue to be a focus of OHSA, resulting in significant fines and penalties imposed by the MOL in schools across the province. Ontario’s Occupational Health and Safety Act requires that employers take every precaution reasonable in the circumstances to protect workers. Sections 25, 27 and 28 refer to the duties and responsibilities of employers, supervisors and workers.

We will perform a full site audit and address all of your concerns, identifying both major and minor issues. Our trained and certified team will work with you to install safety products that will not interfere with the operation of the equipment. Once your machine guarding solution has been installed, we will prepare and design a training and education session, including all necessary signage and certificates to ensure you are compliant. As is standard with all of our inspections, your inspections will be performed via a wireless tablet and data will be uploaded to a secure Customer Portal for viewing within 24 hours. At this time you will be able to track what work has been performed, what repairs are required, and track all of your equipment information in one secure location.
