Operating machinery—with the energy, power, and speed that it generates—makes working in manufacturing especially hazardous. Workers are constantly at risk of severe or permanent injuries. Awareness of safety measures and precautions around equipment mitigates these risks in manufacturing plants and factories. Intended as a general guide, this course will help workers recognize common machinery hazards and utilize machine guarding best practices against possible injury. It can also help in assessing whether workplace safeguards and training are adequate. (Last updated: May 2025)
