ABSTRACT
Machine guarding is an integral part of safety and health for those working in the infrastructure section of the service industry. It matters little what piece of equipment or machinery is found in the workplace, but it does matter if it is not properly guarded to protect workers from making errant contact, which could result in injury, amputation, or even death. All machines or equipment should have a hard guard, but at times this is not possible and other safeguards are place upon machines or equipment to protect workers.
