Resumen From 1999 to 2003, 64,000 accidents and 100 deaths were determined to be attributable to hazardous machines in Quebec industries. Although the tools and methods for estimating the risks associated with this equipment offer a first-line prevention strategy, a recent study revealed that they come in very different forms. As part of a thematic program intended to provide a better understanding of the processes for estimating the risks associated with industrial machines, the objective of this study was to explore the theoretical efficiency and limitations of a sample of these tools and methods, so as to open up avenues for improving the selection of the means of estimating the risks associated with industrial equipment. It involved selecting a sample of evaluation tools, defining an equivalence scale for each of these tools, analyzing the equivalence scales, applying each of these tools to 20 dangerous situations and analyzing the findings.
