Purpose: The purpose of this article is to present the type of hazards, to study their impact on human safety, to carry out an occupational risk assessment at the laser metal cleaning station, and to establish corrective activities for the safety condition. Design/methodology/approach: an analysis of the problem of the occurrence of nuisance and hazardous factors during the use of lasers in the technology of machine parts is presented, in the case-study part, the identification and analysis of factors affecting the health risk is carried out, a risk assessment is carried out at the laser cleaning station using the five-step method according to PN-N-18002, the results obtained are discussed, technical and organizational solutions necessary to achieve an acceptable risk condition are presented. Findings: the developed list of hazards and the risk assessment sheet indicate the need to take measures to minimize the risk. The collected information on working with lasers can be used in the future for job training, creating a safety culture at the plant and reducing the negative impact on the health of employees. Research limitations/implifications: the analysis carried out has made it possible to develop recommendations in the context of safe work at a workstation designed for laser cleaning of metal surfaces. In the future it is possible, following the example shown, to develop risk cards for laser processing of other types performed on different materials. Practical implications: The results of the analysis and the developed recommendations for improving the organization of the machining station can be used in other companies in the context of the correct equipment of workstations, selection of individual and collective protective equipment, workstation training, risk management, etc. Social implications: the article will enable the dissemination of information about the specifics of metalworking with lasers and the promotion of a culture of work safety and good practices at workstations with lasers. Originality/value: The content presented in the article complements the research on the implementation and use of laser techniques in modern companies with knowledge and practical guidelines in the area of occupational health and safety management. The added value of the article is the reference to laser workstations, which have become increasingly common in recent years and are replacing previous, sometimes obsolete technologies, as well as the possibility of applying methods of analysis and assessment of occupational risk in work with lasers in practice.
