Every employee wants a safe, secure place of work. But the idea of 'job security' does not just mean a secure position, but also that the workplace itself is literally safe and secure, protected from hazards and free of injury and health risks. Legal regulations on occupational health and safety are placing increasingly higher demands on companies involved in industrial production. In this growing market segment, ABUS is now offering an extensive range of 'lockout' (maintenance protection) and 'tagout' (labelling) products to meet the increasing demand for safety precautions in companies.
One moment of inattention or negligence is all it takes. Every year in Germany, several hundred people die in accidents at work, and over one million employees are injured, some of them severely. Especially in industrial environments, where employees work with chemicals, high temperatures, heavy machinery or high-voltage lines, the risk of accident is particularly high. That's why preventative occupational safety measures above all, in addition to clear guidelines for actions in the event of an emergency, are important. Even simple measures and the right safety products can prevent accidents and protect employees effectively.
