Machine guards and aisle markings installed five years ago are never rechecked after a new equipment layout. What identification question should be asked?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Moving machines without rechecking guards is like rearranging furniture and leaving the baby gate in the old doorway. Controls must still fit the new layout. Reassess after the change, not five years later by accident.
Full Explanation
Identification and control review should ask whether safeguards remain adequate after layout or equipment changes. Guards, markings, and barriers sized for a prior configuration may leave new pinch points or travel paths unprotected. Periodic rechecks after change prevent outdated controls from creating a false sense of safety.
