Success Story - Enhancing Machine Safety and
OSHA Compliance

A leading aerospace company, faced significant challenges regarding machine guarding and lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures. These issues not only posed risks to employee safety but also threatened operational efficiency and compliance with regulatory standards. Recognizing the urgent need for improvement, the company sought our expertise in safety compliance. Through a comprehensive engagement, we conducted a thorough machine guarding assessment that identified critical vulnerabilities in machine guarding. Our team worked closely with their management to design OSHA complaint machine guarding and machine-specific lockout tagout procedures.

Additionally, we implemented a robust lockout/tagout program designed to mitigate the risk of accidental machine start-up during maintenance activities. This program included detailed training sessions for employees, ensuring they understood the importance of adhering to safety protocols and the correct application of the LOTO procedures.

The impact of our safety compliance solutions was profound. The aerospace company reported a significant reduction in machine-related accidents, fostering a safer work environment for their employees. The implementation of the machine guarding assessment and the lockout/tagout program not only elevated their safety standards but also enhanced overall operational efficiency. Furthermore, their compliance with industry regulations improved, reducing the risk of potential fines or legal repercussions.
