Each year, 18,000 workers suffer machine-related injuries like amputations, lacerations and crushing due to inadequate safeguarding measures.

Every day, 14 workers lose their lives in U.S. workplace accidents—a tragic statistic that has remained unchanged for over a decade.
Proper safeguarding significantly reduces injury costs by 70%, lowering workplace risks, liability, downtime, and workers’ compensation.
