For maintenance managers wanting to know how the new Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC is going to affect them, help is at hand at the Maintec Summit 2011. Laidler Associates, a market leader in machinery safety and compliance, and part of the TUV SUD group, will present a seminar entitled The Impact of Recent Amendments to the Machinery Directive on the Maintenance Function, which is scheduled for 11:00 on 31 March 2011.
The seminar will discuss how the Directive has been received by industry, why the Machinery Directive might now be referred to as the 'Lifecycle Directive', how the Directive has changed, and how the standards have helped it to change.
Having worked with the legislation for over a year, and having a good understanding of how those it affects are responding to it, Laidler Associates understands the need for more education and expert coaching among end users, and will be available to provide expert advice and guidance for all machinery safety-related queries.
Held at the Birmingham NEC, the Maintec Summit 2011 presents the opportunity to discover insights and ideas that determine which maintenance activities to undertake and how to organise them. Follow the link for further information and registration details for the Maintec Summit 2011.
