AS 4024.1100:2019 PDF
The AS(/NZS) 4024.1XXX, Safety of machinery, series provides users with the essential framework for designing and operating safe machine systems. It applies to single items of machinery or groupings of machines, so that a safe interface between discrete items is also ensured.
In the Australian and Australian/New Zealand context, the Standards apply to all workplace machinery and equipment described as “plant” in legislation. They do not apply to hand-powered plant or handsupported powered plant, although the principles contained within the Standards can provide guidance for many applications in the broader workplace.
The objective of the AS(/NZS) 4024.1XXX (series) is to enable those who design, manufacture, supply, control, use and maintain machinery to minimize the risks to the health and safety of people working with or near machinery, by providing technical principles for the design, manufacture, maintenance and use of machine systems.
