Access Hazards Protect Against Mechanical Hazards

Access Hazards Protect Against Mechanical Hazards

Mechanical hazards aren’t always obvious. While high-powered tools and moving systems are part of the job, injuries occur during routine tasks—reaching close to moving parts, stepping into poorly marked areas, or making quick adjustments without full closure.

The real risk often comes from what’s overlooked: pinch points, crush zones, and exposed components that don’t stand out during a fast-paced workday. Familiar routines can create blind spots, especially when workers are stretched thin and deadlines are tight.

As the pace of work accelerates and machine activity lengthens, the room for error grows smaller. In these situations, even everyday interactions with equipment can have serious consequences.
