Abstract

Moving machine parts have the potential to cause severe workplace injuries, such as crushed fingers or hands, amputations, burns, or blindness. Amputations, lacerations, and abrasions are costly and have the potential to increase workers' compensation premiums. (Amputation is one of the most severe and crippling types of injuries in the occupational workplace, often resulting in permanent disability.) The main purpose of this study is to monitor the overall risks and hazards around the machines in pharmaceutical company and then to reduce accidents to workers through the use of machine guards and other safe guards. Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment is one of the vast and best methods to be followed for such research, so in our work we will implement try to implement the method practically in the company and monitor the results.
