Free practical guide to Machinery Safety
December 1st 2009

Available free to download is the newly re-written A practical guide to machinery safety sponsored by Laidler Associates, one of the UK’s leading safety and compliance consultants and Safety Systems Technology, the independent electrical safety system product supplier and provider of remedial services and project management. The guide can be downloaded from: www.laidler.co.uk.

The easy to read guide covers legislation including the EMC and Low Voltage Directives, the ATEX Directive and the very latest information on the new Machinery Directive. It also covers risk assessment and hazard analysis; includes step-by-step advice on CE marking and the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER).

Commenting on the new guide Paul Laidler, of Laidler Associates said, “The guide is written to benefit both machine builders and end users. Both sides need a good understanding of the legislation and processes surrounding machinery safety and this guide will help bridge the gap in understanding between the two.”
