Against the background of global markets, the problem of defeated protective equipment is not limited to individual countries. An international exchange of information on this topic is therefore useful and necessary.
With the information on this website, the ISSA Section Machine and System Safety contributes to an open discussion on the subject of defeating protective devices in companies. These discussions can be the basis for further solutions to avoid incentives for defeating in the future and thus to prevent defeating of protective devices.
International experts from various countries are working together in the Project Group "Stop Defeating".
The website stop-defeating.org offers cross-industry information and tools for both manufacturers and users of machinery to prevent the defeating of safeguards. The content is available in German and English.
The website, which was first published in 2010, has been completely revised and additional material has been added. The presentation of the information is now aligned to the life cycle of the machine and clarifies which measures must be taken by manufacturers and users to prevent defeating.
Further practical assistance for manufacturers and users can be found in the form of information leaflets and presentations available for download:
- Cross-sector best practice design examples
- Cross-sector examples of tampering-related machine accidents
- Teaching modules
- Educational films
