Lockout/tagout is a system of energy control procedures that must be used anytime machine guards are opened or removed, electrical doors or covers are opened or anytime a person is potentially exposed to injury from the unexpected start up or energization of equipment. To help prevent injuries during lockout/tagout operations, your organization has developed a written energy control program in accordance with OSHA’s Control of Hazardous Energy Standard. This plan must provide training to ensure employees understand its purpose and function. That’s the purpose of this program—to review the various components of your organization’s energy control plan and how these elements work to keep workers safe during lockout/tagout operations.
Participants should be able to explain the following after watching the program:
- Which workplace situations require lockout/tagout and which ones do not
- What the purpose and components of the written energy control plan are
- Which employees are considered “authorized,” “affected” and “other workers”
- What the requirements are for locks and tags used in lockout operations
- What the sequence of steps in which authorized workers must follow when performing a lockout procedure is
- What the sequence of steps is in returning equipment to service after when performing a lockout procedure has been completed
- Which lockout situations require special consideration
