Specifies the general underlying principles for the safeguarding of industrial machinery and provides means for hazard and risk identification arising from the use of machinery during all phases of machine life. Methods for minimizing or eleminating these hazards and risks, for safeguarding machines and for safe work practices are described. Guidelines for determining the appropriate safety measures and interlocking levels are provided. It does not provide guidance for safeguarding any specific machines.

This Standard identifies the hazards and risks arising from the use of industrial machinery and describes methods for the elimination or minimization of these hazards and risks, as well as the safeguarding of machinery and the use of safe working practices. The Standard describes and illustrates a number of safety principles and provides guidelines by which it is possible to assess which measure or methods it is practicable to adopt in particular circumstances. Although reference is made to specific types of machine, specific recommendations are not given for every type of machine or application.Reference is made to non-mechanical hazards but these are not covered in detail.
