Register for Omron Machine Safety Workshops – build key machine safety skills and protect your team!
Are you confident that your plant is a safe place to work in?
Safety depends just as much on knowledge as it does on safeguarding hardware. If your team lacks a clear understanding of key safety concepts, even the most thoroughly safeguarded machines may still pose a risk.
Our intensive Machine Safeguarding Skill Builder seminars teach the requirements, methods and practical application of machine and process safeguarding. These workshops cover:
- Applicable regulatory requirements
- Machine safety risk identification
- Practical tips for applying safeguarding concepts
