Subject: [TN] Injury by array

Oh wise and wonderful members of tech net -

We have had to incidents in the past six months where assemblers have
been cut while handling assembly arrays (2-up panels) for one of our
products. This has elevated the issue to "Panic Mode" due to the
involvement of EHS&Q (environmental health, safety and quality). As the
designer of the array I have been given ownership of the issue and am
task with resolving it.  After 20+years of handling boards and arrays I
have never been cut, so I am unsure as to what if any corrective action
can be taken to prevent future injuries.

The specifics on the arrays -
10.5" [267mm] x 12.0" [305mm] x 0.062" [1.6mm] thick
2 - up for 4.7"[119.3mm] x 9.2" [233.6mm] PCB
Minimum rail 0.38"[9.5mm]
Tab Route and Retain (mouse bite)
Injuries occurred during loading of the solder printer and during slide
line operations for post reflow assembly. 

Any suggestions on what to tell our production group?
