How can I ensure my factory machinery guarding complies with Work Health and Safety regulations?

To ensure your factory machinery guarding complies with Work Health and Safety (WHS) regulations, start by conducting a thorough risk assessment to identify potential hazards. Implement appropriate guarding solutions, such as fixed guards, interlocked guards, or adjustable guards, depending on the machinery's operation and maintenance requirements. Regularly maintain and inspect the guards to ensure they remain effective and compliant. Additionally, provide worker training on proper machine operation and safety procedures. Consult the relevant Australian Standards and WHS regulations for specific requirements and consider Barrier Group products to find reliable, compliant guarding options. By taking these steps, you can create a safer work environment and meet WHS compliance standards.
