About this event
If you work with machinery, equipment, or product safety, you already know that risk assessment can become vague fast. This session is designed to make it practical by focusing on one useful output you can take into real work: a clear, usable ISO 12100 risk assessment checklist. About the Event This online meetup is centered on building a checklist based on ISO 12100, the widely used framework for identifying hazards, estimating and evaluating risk, and considering risk reduction measures in machinery and equipment design. Instead of treating the standard as something abstract, the event focuses on how to turn its logic into a structured tool you can actually use during reviews, design discussions, and safety conversations. The format is well suited to a community-style virtual gathering:
Who should attend
This is for people who want a more practical, consistent way to approach ISO 12100 risk assessment work. - You work in **machine design, product development, manufacturing, or industrial engineering** and want a checklist that supports better safety reviews. - You are responsible for **risk assessments, compliance documentation, or safety sign-off** and need a more structured way to capture hazards, risks, and controls. - You support **EHS, product safety, functional safety, quality, or regulatory** efforts and want to strengthen how your team applies ISO 12100 in practice. - You are trying to **standardize reviews across projects or across reviewers**, so assessments are less dependent on individual memory or style. - You already use a checklist, but you suspect it is **too generic, too inconsistent, or missing important lifecycle and risk-reduction prompts**. - You value **peer discussion and practical examples** and want to compare notes with others working through similar machinery safety and assessment challenges. If you have ever looked at a risk assessment process and thought, "we need a better way to do this every time," you will likely feel at home here.
