Abrasive Safety Assessment Guide
The Abrasive Safety Assessment Guide helps improve safety in the workplace by providing solutions to common short-term and long-term risks that are associated with the use of abrasives. This guide focuses on four principal hazards, namely hand-arm vibration, airborne particles, noise, and injury. It also explains how engineering controls, such as replacing existing abrasive methods with more efficient/safer ones, can help reduce the risks associated with abrasive operations like grinding, cutting, and sanding.
