 OSHA/SAFETY GUARDS

OSHA/safety guarding is an important part of any company that uses machines with external moving parts.

When an OSHA representative inspects a company and deem equipment is unsafe, unreliable, or non-compliant, strict fines can ensue and machines are tagged out and remain inoperable until the addressed safety issue is resolved.
