OSHA Lockout Tagout (LOTO) Training

Lockout-Tagout (LOTO) refers to specific practices and procedures to protect employees from unexpected activations and start-ups by dangerous machines and equipment. The LOTO procedures also protect employees from the release of hazardous energy during service and maintenance activities.

The course meets and exceeds the compliance requirements of the OSHA Standard for the Control of Hazardous Energy (Lockout/Tagout), Title 29 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 1910.147.

• Limiting the number of industrial accidents
• Control of insurance and compensation fees
• Better use of machines: reduced downtime and increased productivity
• Strengthening employee capacity
• Optimize the reputation
• Comply with legislation and regulations

With this Lockout Tagout Training course, you will learn to define energy and distinguish between kinetic and potential energy as they relate to workplace hazards. You will gain an understanding of OSHA requirements for controlling hazardous energy and how they apply across general industry, maritime, and construction environments.

The course explains the proper use of lockout and tagout devices, energy isolating devices, and safe work practices during servicing and maintenance activities. You will learn how to recognize tasks and equipment that may be exempt from lockout tagout requirements and when alternative protective measures are appropriate. The training also covers the development, documentation, and inspection of energy control procedures to ensure ongoing effectiveness and employee safety.
