We offer a variety of training options on machine safety standards, control reliability and functional safety, and risk assessments. Our programs are instructor-led, taught by our TÜV certified senior safety engineers. Our training is available on-site or online, and can be fully customized to your company’s safety needs.
All too often, organizations don’t adhere to OSHA’s guidelines until it’s too late – “too late” meaning they’re being sued by an employee because of a workplace-related injury due to negligence or they’re receiving a fine on behalf of OSHA due to improper safety precautions. Some of these regulations and standards may seem trivial and meticulous, but they’re created with a purpose: to keep people safe. Our experts at Machine Safety Specialists (MSS) can properly train your staff on all things machine safety and prevent you from having to pay for negligence in the future.
We provide a variety of machine safety and risk assessment training options to empower and protect your team. We give you clear, detailed safeguarding answers for today’s highly automated machinery. Our training covers advanced machine safety issues for automated machinery, including OSHA nuances, control reliability and functional safety, application of ISO safety standards, risk reduction, risk management, and liability considerations.
All of our training programs are live and instructor-led. Why is this important? OSHA machine guarding regulations are nearly 50 years old and have simply not kept up with today’s highly automated machinery. This can be confusing, as to comply with OSHA’s general requirements, you must apply technology and safety standards that are not clearly described within the OSHA standards. Our live instructors explain the details and nuances you need to be successful and compliant in today’s highly automated manufacturing environment.
We know that finding time to train can be difficult. That’s why we provide on-site, online, and open enrollment class options, all delivered with the same live, personalized approach from our technical experts. You can choose to train:
We also provide flexible programs and options such as:
Our training programs are designed to help safety professionals, technical personnel, engineers, and managers to develop an understanding of the latest OSHA, ANSI, NFPA, RIA (industrial and collaborative robots) and ISO/EN requirements for industrial machine safety and risk assessment. We also can cover the following technical topics in more detail:
Our programs are taught by MSS’ TÜV certified senior safety engineers. These instructors include practical, real examples and illustrations from their decades of experience inspecting, consulting, and conducting accident investigations in more than 500 plants across the U.S., Canada, and Europe. The MSS team’s instructors are machine safety trainers for OSHA, the Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation, and the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP).
With our machine safety training programs, you have an opportunity to boost your expertise and the potential to earn professional development credits. Many organizations and states recognize seminar hours for Continuing Education Units (CEUs) and Professional Development Hours (PDHs). A CEU is typically equivalent to 10 hours of participation in a recognized continuing education program, and a PDH is usually equivalent to one hour of learning in a professional development activity. Check with your state or organization to confirm eligibility.
