- According to the United States Department of Labor, Machinery and Machine Guarding was one of the Top 10 most frequently cited OSHA violations in 2016;
- 50% or more of metal fabricating machinery in the U.S. is not in OSHA and ANSI guarding compliance;
- Nearly 18,000 workers in metal fabricating plants suffer non-fatal injuries each year in the U.S.;
- And 800 deaths.
We invite you to attend the Rockford Systems' Machine Safeguarding Seminars to grow your machine safety knowledge, improve your plant's OSHA and ANSI compliance, reduce operator risk, improve productivity ... and quite possibly save a life.

The seminars are led by ROGER HARRISON, an industrial safeguarding expert with over 25,000 hours of training experience. Mr. Harrison is also a speaker at seminars sponsored by the Precision MetalForming Association (PMA), National Safety Council (NSC), FABTECH and many more.
