3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this International Standard, the terms and definitions given in GB/T 15706.1-2007 apply.
4 Inherently safe design measures
4.1 General
Inherently safe design measures are the first and most important step in the risk reduction process because protective measures inherent to the characteristics of the machine are likely to remain effective, whereas experience has shown that even well-designed safeguarding may fail or be violated and information for use may not be followed.
Inherently safe design measures are achieved by avoiding hazards or reducing risks by a suitable choice of design features of the machine itself and/or interaction between the exposed persons and the machine.
