Workplace Safety
We strive to meet health and safety requirementsfor laser use without compromising productivity
A visiting factory inspector would require the following from a Class 3B or Class 4 laser user:
- A risk assessment for the laser area
- Safety operating procedures
- A Laser Safety Officer appointed
- Users and LSO suitably trained in laser safety matters
Employers have to meet The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations, and (in a laser context) the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations and the Personal Protective Equipment at work Regulations.

- Calculations of MPE and hazard distances.
- Specification and purchase of safety eyewear and other safety equipment.
