NR-12 is an essential standard for ensuring safety in the workplace, especially when using machinery and equipment.
It establishes technical requirements and preventive measures aimed at protecting workers from accident risks, such as
crushes, cuts, and other incidents related to the operation of industrial machinery.
The standard covers various aspects, including the adequacy of machines, the installation of safety devices, operational
procedures, and the need for proper training for operators and maintainers. Compliance with NR-12 is crucial for preventing
serious accidents, reducing downtime and fines, as well as promoting a safer and more productive work environment.
Adopting the NR-12 guidelines also demonstrates the company's commitment to occupational health and safety, as well as
ensuring compliance with Brazilian labor legislation. Proper implementation of these standards is essential for the
sustainability and competitiveness of companies, avoiding labor liabilities and ensuring the physical integrity of employees.
