There are so many accidents and cases of health every year in all kinds of production lines at manufacturing industry. Accidents about the mechanical equipment, particularly workshop and manufacturing used in machining the metals, plastics and etc. may have consequences which range from a minor cut to the loss of a finger, hand or eye. The frequency of such accidents varies between 10 and 15 percent. Therefore, great care is required on the part of all machine operators to prevent either personal injury or injury to colleagues nearby. Every person has a duty to ensure that work is carried out in a safe manner and without foreseeable risk to the health and safety of either operators or the others. Occupational health and safety is a vital importance for businesses and the welfare and also the safety of staff. Machine-generated hazards can not be eliminated through inherently safe design, and then they must be reduced to an acceptable level, or the hazards to be isolated from the workers by allowing the minimum safety distances to be respected. All the man-machine interfaces that can affect the health and safety must be carefully established whether they are moving elements, machine components, noise, vibration, visible or invisible radiation hazardous materials or ergonomic hazard. The aim of this study is to introduce guidance on how to prevent or manage many of the health and safety planning on engineering in industries of all kinds.
