Machinery is an integral part of many industries, but it also presents significant risks if not properly managed. Every year, accidents involving machinery result in serious injuries, fatalities, and costly downtime. Ensuring that machinery is safe and properly guarded is not just essential for protecting workers—it’s a legal requirement under regulations such as PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998) and the Machinery Directive.

At Compass HSC, we provide expert guidance to help businesses identify and control machinery-related risks. Our services include comprehensive machinery safety audits, risk assessments, and reviews of existing safeguards to ensure compliance with relevant standards. We assess the condition, suitability, and placement of safety systems, including physical guards, interlocks, and emergency stops, to protect operators from harm.

We also offer support with designing and implementing appropriate guarding solutions that align with your operational requirements. From advising on the selection of compliant equipment to ensuring adequate training for employees, we take a holistic approach to machinery safety.

In addition, we help develop maintenance schedules and review procedures to keep machinery operating safely over time. With Compass HSC, you can enhance your workplace safety culture, minimise the risk of incidents, and meet your legal obligations with confidence.
