Laser safety audit - Optech comes to you!
Optech carries out consultation visits on request to improve laser safety at its customers. A prior discussion with the customer is then essential to identify his needs and assess the initial situation.
A site visit is then made to observe the installations, note any items to be corrected and discuss with the laser users.
The following items will be audited:
- Physical installations
- Signage
- Work methods and safety management documents
- Personal protective equipment
We then work in partnership with customers to find the right protective products to fit out laser workstations and to draw up relevant administrative control measures (work protocols, checklists, etc).
A technical report will be submitted to the company to assess the results of the laser safety audit;
On-site measurements can be carried out if required, after discussion with the customer.
« The good work done by Marie-Maude de Denus-Baillargeon enabled us to protect our workers with precise eye safety measures and a recommendation of equipment adapted to our needs. »
