SAFETY MEASURES

16. Mechanicalhazards

17. Rotating Machinery
Causes-Machinery with rotating parts can catch loose
clothing, hands or hair, potentially causing serious
injuries.
Prevention- Ensure rotating shafts, belts and pulleys
are covered by guards, lids or covers.
Tools
Causes-Careless use of tools or use of tools in poor
condition can cause injuries to the hands, eyes, head and
limbs.
