BS EN 500-6:2006+A1:2008 is a standard that specifically focuses on the safety requirements for paver-finishers. These machines are used in mobile road construction and are subject to various hazards. The standard aims to address these hazards and ensure the safety of the operators and workers involved. It covers both the intended use of the paver-finishers and the foreseeable conditions of misuse.

The standard is an addition to the general requirements of EN 500-1, which provides common safety requirements for various types of machinery. This indicates that paver-finishers have specific safety considerations that need to be taken into account. It is worth noting that if the paver-finishers utilize internal and/or external vibrators for concrete paving, then prEN 12649 should also be adhered to.
