Guardian Field Support Manual
4. SAFETY
Safety must be considered prior to installing Guardian.
You must comply with the client’s site safety policies, processes, arrangements and
requirements in place at the site where you will install or maintain the System.
If such policies do not exist, it is a requirement to follow the SAFE WORK practices detailed
below.
For additional Safety related information, contact the local Occupational Health & Safety
authority in your country.
SAFE WORK means:
for the hazards that may be present during the job
the hazards and associated risk involved with the job
the hazards involved with the job with controls
the effectiveness of the controls
When conducting your Safe Work Analysis or a Job Hazard Analysis (JHA), you must plan
for how you will manage the risks and hazards you have identified using the “Hierarchy of
Controls”, where Elimination is the most effective control measure and Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) is the least effective control measure:
Completely eliminate or remove the hazard from the job
Change the task or tool to one with lower risks
Isolation from the hazard (e.g. machine guards)
Training, policies and procedures
Use of protective equipment such as gloves, safety glasses
