I'm looking for information regarding machinery safety regulations in Canada. We have been told by customers in Ontario that a Pre-Start Health & Safety Review is required by a Professional Engineer, although I don't know if that is in fact a legal requirement or under what circumstances it is a legal requirement. Also, is there a list of standards that would apply? I'm thinking CSA Z432-04 for guarding and maybe CSA Z462 for workplace electrical safety may apply, unless there are product-specific standards that apply to your type of machine. Lastly, if this is in fact a regulatory requirement in Ontario, are there other provinces that have the same or similar regulation? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
