背景金属加工工人经历创伤性职业伤害的高比率。特别是机器操作员面临的高风险，往往来自缺乏或不正确使用的机器保障或未能实施锁定procedure.MethodsThe国家机器监护计划（NMGP）是一个转化的研究计划，结合两个工人的赔偿保险实施。保险安全顾问在机器防护培训使用标准化的检查表进行基线检查的机器相关的危险在221 business.ResultsSafeguards在操作点缺失或不足的33%的机器。28%的机器缺少其他机械危险的安全措施。旧机器被广泛使用，而且比新机器更不可能得到适当的保护。上锁/挂牌程序张贴在只有9%的机器workstations.ConclusionsThe NMGP表明需要在许多方面的改进，机器的安全和锁定在小型金属加工企业。Am.

BackgroundMetal fabrication workers experience high rates of traumatic occupational injuries. Machine operators in particular face high risks, often stemming from the absence or improper use of machine safeguarding or the failure to implement lockout procedures.MethodsThe National Machine Guarding Program (NMGP) was a translational research initiative implemented in conjunction with two workers' compensation insures. Insurance safety consultants trained in machine guarding used standardized checklists to conduct a baseline inspection of machine‐related hazards in 221 business.ResultsSafeguards at the point of operation were missing or inadequate on 33% of machines. Safeguards for other mechanical hazards were missing on 28% of machines. Older machines were both widely used and less likely than newer machines to be properly guarded. Lockout/tagout procedures were posted at only 9% of machine workstations.ConclusionsThe NMGP demonstrates a need for improvement in many aspects of machine safety and lockout in small metal fabrication businesses.
