Walkway Protection
More recently we have become more conscious of health and safety in the workplace. Especially in factories and plants that manufacture goods. A great starting point is with safe access for staff in and around the workplace. Walkway protection can include adequate hand railings, walkways and guarding that are compliant with Australian Standards.
Secured walkways, platforms and handrails can prevent injuries and also fatalities by reducing the risk of human contact with plant and equipment. It also encourages the prevention of falls. WDIS.WA are able to design, manufacture and install adequate access systems. They ensure to comply with an employer’s ‘duty of care’ and the employees can go about their daily duties without compromising their safety. WDIS can also offer a regular repair, maintenance and inspection service to existing structures to ensure your business complies with Australian Standards.
There have been many accidents in the last few years that have involved machinery lacking the correct safety measures. These incidences have ended in major injuries and even fatalities in places like grain factories and wool presses. They have lacked adequate guarding on plant that has moving parts. To prevent these types of occurrences WorkSafe recommend that dangerous moving parts of plant have adequate guarding. We can manufacture and supply fixed, fitted or adjustable guards depending on your workplaces requirements.
