The
need to protect workers from hazardous machinery has been recognized for decades,
but the means to do so have evolved considerably over time. Rigorous lock-out/tag-out
procedures and machinery guarding devices such as proximity sensors and physical
barrier guards have greatly improved safety during use and maintenance of
equipment with the potential to injure operators. Our engineers can help you
evaluate whether equipment involved in injury accidents complied with proper
engineering design practice and applicable industry standards.
