Appalling guarding

Here's a good example of appalling guarding seen yesterday on an injection moulding machine.
For a start, the clear panel on the door is falling off.
Then the interlock switches don't contact the sliding door. There's a 45° corner at each end of the door which should contact the roller on the switch when the door is slid one way or the other.
Clearly, neither do this.  And whoever unbolted the switch or bent the bracket is in breach of HSAW Act section 8.
