Machine Risk Assessment identifies and evaluates machinery-related hazards. We cover all mechanical, electrical, and functional safety disciplines. We leverage our extensive experience and meticulous methodology to identify and assess risks that Health and Safety or non-specialist engineering personnel might overlook or underestimate.
We work closely with you to perform a technical inspection of your machinery in accordance with the applicable national and international standards and directives.
We start by reviewing and examining the machine’s design, operation, and intended use. Afterwards, we find mechanical, electrical, ergonomic, and environmental hazards and categorise them based on their severity and likelihood of occurrence. We evaluate each hazard to determine the level of risk and consider factors like frequency of exposure and potential consequences to operators and bystanders.
Based on our risk assessment, we identify, prioritise, and implement appropriate safety measures for your equipment. MSA provides detailed reports throughout the Machine Risk Assessment process, helping stakeholders fully understand the issues and recommended action plans.
In addition, we recommend regular reviews and updates to the risk assessment to accommodate changes in machinery, operations, or safety regulations, ensuring ongoing compliance and continuous improvement in machine safety practices.
With our extensive experience in machine safety, we’ve encountered and addressed a wide range of challenges. As specialists in planning, prioritisation, and project management, we recommend solutions that effectively optimise your resources and budget.
