This machine guarding assessment checklist helps evaluate the safety of machinery and operator workstations. It covers general guarding requirements, accessibility and verification of emergency stop devices, and guarding of mechanical hazards including point of operation, gears, belts, pulleys, shafts, and exposed set screws. It also reviews non-mechanical hazards such as noise and chemical substances, electrical cords and connectors, PPE availability, and safe operator attire. The checklist includes training topics on hazard recognition, lockout/tagout, electrical safety, and PPE, and verifies equipment-specific energy control procedures.
