补充数字内容可在正文中获得。这项全国性干预的目的是提高小型金属制造企业(3至150名员工)的机器安全。未能实施与防护和锁定/标记(LOTO)相关的机器安全计划是职业安全与健康管理局(OSHA)传票的常见原因，并可能导致严重的创伤。保险安全顾问对机器防护、安全计划和LOTO进行了标准化评估。企业接受了基线评估、两次干预访问和12个月的跟踪评估。160家企业完成了干预。增加一个安全委员会与业务级机器分数(P <； 0.0001)和LOTO计划分数(P <； 0.0001)分别增加10%和33%有关。事实证明，保险安全顾问通过管理层-员工安全委员会有效地传播了机器安全和LOTO干预。
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text The purpose of this nationwide intervention was to improve machine safety in small metal fabrication businesses (3 to 150 employees). The failure to implement machine safety programs related to guarding and lockout/tagout (LOTO) are frequent causes of Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) citations and may result in serious traumatic injury. Insurance safety consultants conducted a standardized evaluation of machine guarding, safety programs, and LOTO. Businesses received a baseline evaluation, two intervention visits, and a 12-month follow-up evaluation. The intervention was completed by 160 businesses. Adding a safety committee was associated with a 10% point increase in business-level machine scores (P < 0.0001) and a 33% point increase in LOTO program scores (P < 0.0001). Insurance safety consultants proved effective at disseminating a machine safety and LOTO intervention via management-employee safety committees.
