PrazamanaMachine Risk Assessment
Systematic hazard identification and risk evaluation for new, refurbished, relocated, and existing machinery.
What Is Machine Risk Assessment?
Machine Risk Assessment is a systematic evaluation of a machine's hazards — identifying, evaluating, and documenting risk so it can be reduced before it becomes an incident, carried out per ISO 12100:2010.
Why Does It Matter?
Every machine carries its own hazards — mechanical and non-mechanical — that aren't always visible until they're properly assessed. New, refurbished, relocated, and existing machinery all carry the same underlying problem: risk that hasn't been identified can't be managed.
Scope
Machine Risk Assessment applies to machinery in any of these states.
- New machinery
- Refurbished machinery
- Relocated machinery
- Existing machinery
Approach
- 1.Identify. Existing and potential hazards on the machine are identified through systematic assessment, in collaboration with your team.
- 2.Evaluate. Each hazard is evaluated and prioritized by severity and likelihood.
- 3.Reduce. Practical, safer solutions are recommended to minimize the identified risks.
