Lockout/Tagout Procedures for Energy Control
Lockout - Tagout is a safety procedure used in industries to ensure that all the machinery and equipment are properly shut off and not able to be restarted before maintenance or service work. Because LOTO safety is designed to prevent dangerous energy-related situations such as electrocutions, burns, crushed injuries, and amputations, its significance cannot be emphasized.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) states that many workplace injuries and fatalities occur yearly as a result of inadequate energy control. By guaranteeing that equipment is securely de-energized and cannot be mistakenly activated during maintenance operations, LOTO safety procedures help reduce these hazards. Safety Zest offers comprehensive training programs on Lockout/Tagout Procedures for Energy Control to educate employees on the proper methods to control hazardous energy sources during maintenance and repair tasks.
