Residual Hazards
As with all powered lifting equipment, some
‘residual hazards’ may be present despite any
interlocks, guarding or other safety systems that may be implemented.
The machinery owner has a legal responsibility to take
all
reasonable precautions
to
eliminate, isolate, or minimize these residual hazards. This may include:
-
Monitoring and enforcing the training of operators
-
Design and implementation of Standard Operating Procedures
-
Using rewards and/or disciplinary measures to encourage safe behaviours
-
Posting signage, floor marking, or other warnings as appropriate
-
Encouraging a culture of safety within the workplace
