Here are the five of the most common machine guarding mistakes and how to avoid them.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Not assessing the risks<\/h2>\n<p>Every machine guard has its own set of risks that every worker must know before they start working. You can consult the manufacturer so that they can provide you with a list of potential hazards and how to avoid them. You should also look at previous accidents and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alineautomation.com\/news\/view\/5-machine-guarding-mistakes-to-look-out\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">construction injuries<\/a> reports to see any patterns you can identify.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Not keeping machines in a good working condition<\/h2>\n<p>Machine guards require regular servicing and maintenance to keep them in good working condition. You should also keep an eye out for any signs of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wiselawoffices.com\/3-common-winter-hazards-in-the-construction-industry\/\">wear and tear<\/a> and replace any parts that are worn out.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Not providing the proper training<\/h2>\n<p>If employees are not properly trained on machine guarding, they can easily make mistakes that\u2019ll get them injured. Therefore, supervisors must ensure that all workers receive the necessary training while working with machine guards.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Not having the right safety procedures in place<\/h2>\n<p>Workers should know the correct safety steps to take when operating a machine guard and if something appears to be amiss. To ensure your safety, you should take it upon yourself to learn all up-to-date and relevant safety procedures that cover all aspects of machine guarding.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Using shortcuts when installing or using machine guards<\/h2>\n<p>You should never use shortcuts or sub-standard materials when installing or replacing machine guards. To ensure your safety and that of others, you must adhere to OSHA guidelines at all times.<\/p>\n<p>In case you get hurt at your workplace, you should report your accident to your employer as soon as possible and get the best medical care you can find. Employees in Illinois are entitled to worker\u2019s compensation to cover their medical bills and lost wages while receiving treatment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it comes to machine guarding, there are a few preventable mistakes that many businesses and workers in Illinois make that can lead to injuries or fatalities in the workplace.
