Ensure compliance and enhance workplace safety with our Guards In Position Sign, a prominent prohibition sign reminding staff that machinery must not be used unless all guards are securely in place. Crafted in landscape format for optimal visibility, this sign supports adherence to PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998) by reinforcing key safeguards and helping prevent dangerous operation of unprotected machinery.

Machine guarding is not optional—it’s a legal requirement in the UK under PUWER and the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, reflecting the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. Use this sign to support employer duties under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and PUWER’s Regulation 11, which demands effective safeguarding against hazardous moving parts.

Highly durable and easy to install, the sign ensures staff and visitors are aware of the risks of operating machinery without proper guards. Ideal for factories, workshops, and industrial environments, it reinforces safe working practices and helps minimise the risk of injury. Invest in safety, legal compliance, and reassurance—all with one simple, clear sign.
