Finding safeguards for a specific task is challenging because a physical guard may not be feasible. OSHA AND FEASIBILITY The OSH Act is the relevant law, and OSHA standards are the relevant regulations for most employers and employees in the United States. All machinery contains hazards, and some level of residual risk.

At the recent ASSE Professional Development Conference, there was considerable focus on risk assessment, voluntary standards and prevention through design. The primary reason to become familiar with ANSI B11 is that it guides risk assessment. Risk assessment is one of the most powerful safety tools we have.

Table 2 provides one example for determining the risk for each hazard. By agreeing to the probability that an event may occur and then the potential severity of the event, then the risk can be determine. It is critical to remember the primary purpose of using Table 2 is to drive consistency between risk assessments.
