What is Foreign Material Exclusion (FME)?

FME is a practice that prevents unwanted materials from entering work areas.

Why is FME important?

FME helps maintain safety and reduces the risk of damage in various industries.

Common foreign materials include dust, tools, and packaging materials.

FME focuses on preventing foreign materials, while FOD deals with damage caused by those materials.

Inspection cameras, magnetic sweeps, and checklists assist in managing FME effectively.
