HSL is to run a 4 x 1 day course on Machinery Safety Series.

See 4 individual courses below

PUWER - Machinery Safety Basics

Machinery Risk Assessment Essentials

Designing and Selecting Safe Machinery

Designing and Specifying Safety Related Control Systems

This series of four courses has been designed to suit the different safety training needs of all the people involved in purchasing, maintaining and modifying machines and as well as those people engaged in designing, specifying, building and supplying machines and assemblies of machines.

The design of machinery influences the level of risk to which people who interact with them are exposed. The subject that deals with safety-related aspects of machinery design has considerable depth and breadth leading to varied and differing individual training requirements. This series of four one-day courses have been developed to cover various aspects of machinery safety to enable the selection of appropriate topics to suit a delegate's specific requirement.

The courses are arranged back-to-back to facilitate attendance of one or more course with the minimum of travel costs. Delegates can book on to a single course or attend two, three or four depending on the depth of knowledge they need to acquire.

So for instance someone responsible for maintaining and carrying out small modifications to machines and purchasing the occasional new machine would find it helpful to attend the Machinery Safety Basics and Machinery Risk Assessment Essentials courses whereas a machine designer with a mechanical bias might want to attend the Machinery Risk Assessment Essentials and Designing and Specifying Safe Machinery courses.

On the other hand a project engineer responsible for specifying and installing a large machinery project who will need to understand all aspects of machinery safety would find it relevant to attend all four days of the course.

Venue

The courses will be run at the HSL laboratory in the spa town of Buxton. Buxton is in the heart of the Peak District and has good links to mainline train stations and Manchester International Airport.
