Course Details

1. Regulations & Compliance

  • Follows OSHA 1910.147 (Control of Hazardous Energy - Lockout/Tagout) and ANSI Z244.1 (Control of Hazardous Energy).

  • LOTO training is required for all employees who perform maintenance or service activities involving hazardous energy.

2. Lock-Out/Tag-Out Principles

  • Lock-Out: The process of physically isolating and securing the energy source with a lock to prevent accidental operation.

  • Tag-Out: The use of warning tags that indicate the equipment has been locked out and should not be operated.

  • Control of Hazardous Energy: Ensuring all sources of hazardous energy (electric, hydraulic, mechanical, thermal, etc.) are properly isolated and de-energized.

3. LOTO Procedures

  • Preparation: Identify all energy sources that must be isolated and confirm the methods for de-energizing them.

  • Shutdown: Turn off the machinery or equipment following the manufacturer's procedures.

  • Lock-Out: Apply lock-out devices to energy-isolating mechanisms (e.g., electrical switches, valves).

  • Tag-Out: Attach appropriate tags with clear instructions, warnings, and the name of the person responsible.

  • Verification: Verify that energy sources are effectively isolated and that equipment cannot be started before maintenance begins.

  • Perform Work: Once energy sources are locked/tagged out, maintenance or servicing can proceed.

4. LOTO Steps for Re-Energization

  • Complete Work: Before re-energizing, ensure all tools, parts, and personnel are clear of the equipment.

  • Remove Lock/Tag: Only the person who applied the lock/tag can remove it.

  • Verify Equipment: Inspect the equipment and ensure that it is safe for operation before re-energizing.

  • Notify Personnel: Inform all workers that the equipment is being re-energized and they should stay clear.

5. Common Hazards & Prevention

  • Unexpected Start-Up: Prevent by using proper lock-out/tag-out methods and ensuring that all energy sources are isolated.

  • Failure to Follow Procedures: Ensure all employees are trained in the lock-out/tag-out procedures to avoid shortcuts that could lead to injuries.

  • Accidental Removal of Locks or Tags: Ensure that locks are only removed by the person who applied them and that proper communication occurs.

6. Emergency Procedures

  • Energy Release Accidents: If hazardous energy is released unexpectedly, stop work immediately, secure the area, and report the incident to supervisors.

  • Injury Response: Administer first aid and report to medical personnel if injuries occur.

  • Investigation: Investigate any lock-out/tag-out violations or incidents to prevent future occurrences.

7. Certification & Refresher Training

  • Initial Certification: Includes training in LOTO procedures, equipment-specific isolation steps, and the legal requirements for compliance.

  • Refresher Training: Required every 1-2 years to ensure that all employees are aware of updated procedures, regulations, and best practices.
