Do your employees work with machine-tools on a regular basis? Offer them this Santinel training, which is focused on safe use and prevention of possible risks. Upon completion of this unique training, your team will be able to use machine-tools while respecting current standards and demonstrating safe behaviours.

Using machine-tools involves potential dangers which can be reduced with the strict enforcement of safety instructions. There are several factors involved when using this equipment that must be taken into account to limit the risk of accidents. This training will analyze the interrelation between the behaviour of the worker, the state of protection of the machine, the working environment as well as the task to be accomplished.

Using specific examples selected by our trainers, your operators will be made aware of the specific dangers of different machine-tools, depending on whether they are used for rolling, cutting or sawing. In short, this training is essential to protect the health and safety of your workers.
