Robot Safety Training: Levels and Records
Training has to match the audience to be useful.
Three levels
| Audience | Focus |
|---|---|
| Management | Responsibility, policy and lessons from incidents |
| Operators and setters | Operating rules, hazards and emergency response |
| Maintenance and visitors | Lockout, entry procedure and personal protection |
Recommendations
- Assess knowledge with theory and a practical element covering emergency stop.
- Require assessment before new or transferred staff work on the equipment.
- Run refresher training after every modification or process change.
- File attendance and assessment records.
Training records are important safety evidence. Keep them for the required retention period.
