Reference is made to various sections of NFPA 79, as well as applicable European and ANSI standards. This seminar is consistently updated as changes to standards occur. The importance of having control reliable circuits and protective elements will also be discussed in detail.

Understanding General Machine Safeguarding

Training will detail the proper method for hazard identification, as well as choosing the right safeguarding element for each application. Coverage of various sections relative to machine safeguarding standards such as ANSI B11.19 and CSA 432-94 are reviewed. Limitations and appropriate methods of installing light curtains, laser scanners, safety mats, relays and other devices are discussed. The CFR Part 1910 Occupational Safety and Health Standards for General Industry, Subpart 0, Machinery and Machine Guarding , will be reviewed as appropriate.

Lockout / Tagout Procedures

This training explains the proper method of determining when lockout / tagout is necessary and how to accomplish it. It stresses the importance of placing a piece of equipment or machine into a zero mechanical state prior to servicing or programming the equipment. The seminar includes many of the common concerns found within a facility relative to the lockout program and procedures. Real examples of failure to lockout issues will be reviewed.

Meeting RIA Robotic Safety Standards

This seminar covers the RIA 15:06 Robot Standard that was published in June 1999. Training will include reviewing clauses 1 through 14 and the application of protective elements to the robot and robotic system. Discussion and review will be conducted in detail relative to the prescribed method of safeguarding, as well as the comprehensive risk assessment.

Occupational Safety & Health Standards (United States)

Seminar will include conducting a review of 29 CFR Part 1910, Subpart 0, Machinery and Machine Guarding. Case studies relative to possible outcomes due to the lack of machine guarding will be presented. The concept of "around, under, through and over" when dealing with machine safeguarding and protective elements such as light curtains, safety mats, laser scanners, etc. will be reviewed.

Occupational Safety & Health Standards (Ontario)

Training includes a review of the internal responsibility system as defined by the Occupation Health and Safety Act. Discussion will cover the responsibilities placed on owners, employers, workers, supervisors, constructors, suppliers, engineers, and architects. An explanation of the difference between an order and a requirement as issued by an inspector will be given. Information will also be supplied about the powers of the inspector and the process for appealing an order or lack of an order from an inspector.

OSHA Outreach 10 - Hour Training Program

The OSHA 10 - Hour Training Program is intended to provide a variety of training on General Industry Safety and Health to the entry-level worker. The training will focus on topics such as hazard identification, avoidance, control and prevention. The training is not intended to focus on the OSHA standards themselves.

OSHA Outreach 30 - Hour Training Program

The OSHA 30 - Hour Training Program is intended to provide a variety of training to people with some safety responsibility. Of the topics listed as course material, seven hours are mandatory and fourteen hours must be chosen from the optional topic list provided.

Pre-Start Health & Safety Review (Ontario)

This seminar will interpret the Section 7 Pre-Start Health and Safety Standard with specific information relating to "New and Modified Equipment" found in Table 1 of Section 7. The standard requires that a professional engineer review the equipment before the apparatus is put into operation. The training details the process of how and when to decide a Pre-Start Health and Safety Review is required, as well as the various standards and codes that may be applicable to the review. Discussion will center around the various exemptions as provided by the review process and the difficulties involved in achieving exemptions.

Risk Assessment & Risk Reduction

Training includes reviewing the various types of risk assessments, such as the RIA 15:06 - 1999 Clause 9, as well as ANSI B11.3 Risk Assessment and Risk Reduction, A Guide to Estimate, Evaluate and Reduce Risks Associated with Machine Tools. Discussion will cover how to set up a risk assessment team, the process involved in new equipment buy offs, who should review equipment modifications, and the process of ensuring on-going compliance to the relevant standards and codes.
