Why health and safety matters here
Health and safety in printing concerns protecting people working around presses, finishing machinery, materials and substances, and during loading, handling and despatch. This page is a general, educational overview and does not set out specific regulations; employers and workers should rely on the official health and safety authority and labour inspectorate in their country for the rules that apply.
Common areas of awareness
- Safe operation of presses and finishing machinery, including guarding.
- Handling of inks, solvents and other substances used in print.
- Manual handling of paper, board, reels and finished work.
- Housekeeping, noise and a tidy, organised working area.
- Use of appropriate protective equipment where needed.
What employers generally do
- Deliver a safety induction before anyone works on machinery.
- Provide role-appropriate training and supervision.
- Make sure equipment is maintained and guarding is in place.
- Keep clear, accessible safety information for staff.
Where to find the rules
- Consult the national health and safety authority for your country.
- Refer to the national labour inspectorate for workplace requirements.
- Follow machine manufacturers and substance safety information.
- Seek qualified advice for your specific site and processes.
