Plant walk-through with SICK safety experts
Safety is a
company value
P R O D U C T I N F O R M AT I O N
Safety has a high value.
Because it serves to protect people.
Safety is an important part of the corporate culture. Optimally
protected workstations and machines show that you value your
staff. The feeling of being in safe hands improves the working
atmosphere and your staff‘s ability to identify with the company.
However, technology is advancing and safety strategies are
becoming increasingly efficient. Reason enough to examine your
production plant‘s safety concept from the ground up. How?
It‘s simple: With a plant walk-through accompanied by the market
leader in the field of industrial safety: SICK.
Plant walk-through – on the way
to a new safety culture

Production plants are becoming increasingly complex, productivity are rising and
operation is becoming more sophisticated. The more effi ciently and reliably the
machines and equipment function, the greater the emphasis on the „human safety
problem“. 80 % of all safety incidents during operation concern people; only 20 %
are on account of the technology.

So it is worth investing in improving industrial safety. The ideal start:
a plant walk-through with SICK experts.
T H E B E N E F I T S AT A G L A N C E
• You obtain a compact overview of the safety status of
your plant
• You recognise the most important safety aspects
• You obtain planning tools for collaboration with authorities
• You obtain valuable assistance with implementing your
future safety strategy
Achieve optimal safety quickly
and economically
Based on the results of the plant
walk-through, you are able to act pur-
posefully. For this, SICK offers a full
range of services: from risk assess-
ment and safety inspections through
to complete safety-related plant
modernisation.
Example of a concluding computer
analysis following a joint plant
walk-through.
Plant walk-through with „tangible“ results:
At the end, you obtain a comprehensive
report in which the objects are listed and
assessed in terms of safety.

SICK conducts more than 10,000
safety inspections each year and
is accredited by DATech – an in-
dependent and internationally
recognised confirmation of the
reliability and quality of the defined
services.

A plant walk-through with our safety
specialists helps you, the decision
maker, realistically assess the safety-
related status quo of your machines
and equipment. Critical zones are
determined, recorded, prioritised
according to potential risk and
documented.

For the concluding assessment,
we consider:
• the integrity of the
protection systems
• the priority of the machines
• organisational measures

The advantage of this simple approach:
For a reasonable cost, you obtain a
planning instrument as the basis for
internal organisation and for collabora-
tion with supervisory bodies. Tangible
measures for the future safety strategy
can be derived from this.
