Laser safety officers also impart the necessary knowledge for the safe handling of laser equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The work of laser safety officers therefore makes a significant contribution to preventing accidents and increasing productivity. Ultimately, as \"guardians of eyes and health\", they are at the service of every person who comes or may come into contact with laser radiation during operations.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Schwei\u00dffachbetrieben, in denen Handlaserger\u00e4te zum Einsatz kommen, spielen &nbsp;Laserschutz und entsprechende Vorkehrungen eine wichtige Rolle.
