4 Safety Guarding Assessments As a starting point in developing an effective safety guarding policy, a risk assessment is a great tool that will discover potential areas of risk, ensure compliance and educate stakeholders on proper safety guarding practices and procedures. GUARDING SPECIALISTS WILL: Come to site Meet with stakeholders to review the assessment plan Assess the equipment guarding that is outlined by the plan Take pictures of all equipment that requires guarding Measure areas to ensure a tight, secure fit Recommend guarding upgrades based on either MSHA, OSHA or CSA Standards GUARDING ASSESSMENT REPORT INCLUDES: Itemized report showing pictures of non-compliant guarding Description of guarding deficiencies Itemized quote showing cost to replace defective guarding OTHER BENEFITS INCLUDE: Discover solutions to reduce unnecessary workplace injuries Developing a stronger understanding of the standardized requirements and scope of a tailored guarding project Eliminating ineffective guarding systems and ensuring industry compliance Increasing productivity OUR SERVICES INCLUDE: Risk Identification Risk Management Cost Projections & Breakdown Customized Guarding Designs Fabrication of Custom Guarding On-Site Equipment Measurements and Photography On-Site Training 1 For more information please us at safety@conveyorguarding.com or visit our website at

5 Risk Matrix Once a Safety Guarding Assessment has been completed, this matrix will help you prioritize your guarding project. Risk Matrix Probability High Low Severity High 1 2 Low 3 4 High Severity, High Probability: a severe accident is very likely to happen. This may result in serious injury or death. High Severity, Low Probability: the chances of an accident occurring are low. This may result in serious injury or death. High Probability, Low Severity: the chances of an accident happening are very high. This may result in less severe injuries. Low Probability, Low Severity: there is a low likelihood of an accident occurring. This may result in less severe injuries. A level 1 or 2 rating should be addressed immediately. A level 3 should be reviewed as soon as possible and promptly addressed. A level 4 should be reviewed to determine what improvements are required.

6 Safety Gauge When designing safety guarding, it is essential to ensure that openings such as mesh for machine visibility, are not large enough to allow access to the hazards contained. It is also crucial that the guarding is installed at a safe distance from the hazard. Belt Conveyor Guarding has developed a Safety Gauge that is essential for the design, installation and inspection of guarding systems. It is used to ensure that the openings adhere to all appropriate machine guarding safety standards. These standards include preventing the ability to reach the hazard, either through, over, under or around the guarding. The guarding must comply with North American standards such as ANSI (American National Standards Institute) and CSA (Canadian Standards Association). Safety gauge opens up to indicate the appropriate size of allowable mesh and the distance the guarding system must be from the hazard. 3 For more information please us at safety@conveyorguarding.com or visit our website at

7 Mesh Sizes and Types Expanded metal and welded wire mesh play an integral role in the safety and compliance of our guarding solutions. Below are examples of standard and custom sizes we use. Expanded Metal Welded Wire Mesh A B Mesh Sizes Mesh Sizes Mesh Size A Mesh Size B 5/16 #18 Flattened x 1-10 Gauge.865 3/4 #13 Flattened (Standard) ½ x 1 ½ - 10 Gauge /4 #13 Flattened (Modified) x 3 x 1/ ½ #13 Flattened Mesh can be painted in any color, but our standard color is safety yellow. Premium Black Mesh, an additional option, is easier on the eyes, provides better visibility and allows for the use of touchless measuring equipment without having to remove the guard. Standard Safety Yellow Optional Black Mesh Welded Wire Mesh Painted Safety Yellow Other sizes available upon request For more information please us at safety@conveyorguarding.com or visit our website at 4

9 ROI and Maintenance When talking about guarding, the most important aspect is whether the guarding system is properly protecting your workers from the danger behind it. Something that should also be considered when deciding on a guarding system is the Return on Investment (ROI). WORKER SAFETY SHOULD BE EVERYONE S TOP PRIORITY Belt Conveyor Guarding Increases your Return on Investment by: Increasing worker safety Helping you avoid citations and fines with compliant guarding Spending less time on maintenance because guards are user friendly and easier to access Enabling small repairs to be done quickly, reducing wait times and breakdowns Having shorter unscheduled down times with easy to handle guards Now that you have compliant guards, how do you keep them that way? For years, the solution has been to forget about the guards until they were non-compliant again. IT S TIME TO START A PROPER MAINTENANCE PROGRAM FOR YOUR GUARDS Guard Maintenance Programs should consist of: Regularly scheduled inspections of current guarding Ensuring that all guarding remains compliant Replacing any damaged or worn guarding Utilizing Belt Conveyor Guarding s identification system to order replacement parts For more information please us at safety@conveyorguarding.com or visit our website at 6
