Buying a new machine does not guarantee it is safe. This course explains what manufacturers and suppliers must provide under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, how UKCA and CE marking work in Great Britain and Northern Ireland, what partly completed machinery is, and the checks buyers must make under PUWER before putting any new or second-hand machine into use.
