Dangerous Machines (Regulation) Act, 1983 alongwith Rules, 2007

This practical edition compiles the Dangerous Machines (Regulation) Act, 1983 and the Dangerous Machines (Regulation) Rules, 2007 into a single, practitioner-focused reference that clarifies statutory obligations for manufacturing, importing, installing, operating and inspecting dangerous machinery. The Act establishes registration, certification and inspection regimes intended to protect workers and the public from hazards posed by specified classes of machines; the 2007 Rules provide procedural detail on testing, mark/label requirements, inspection intervals, authorised testing stations, forms and penalties for non-compliance. Each provision is presented section-by-section with concise marginal notes, cross-references to allied safety statutes and standards, and a clear index for rapid lookup. Useful features include checklists for factory safety audits, sample certification formats, and a quick-reference table of which machines fall under regulation. Manufacturers, plant managers, safety & compliance officers, factory inspectors, occupational-health consultants and legal practitioners will find this edition invaluable for audit readiness, regulatory filings, incident response and litigation support. Carefully edited for clarity and accuracy, this edition transforms technical statutory language into usable guidance for ensuring machine safety and regulatory compliance.
