Hazardous Energy Control - LOTO - Safety Awareness Training
This training course will review the requirements of the Lockout/Tagout regulation and will also cover the various types of active and stored energy sources and the controls necessary for employee protection.
Course Overview
To protect you from the serious hazards posed by the unexpected start-up or operation of equipment during repair or maintenance, the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) has established a Control of Hazardous Energy standard. It is commonly referred to as the lockout/tagout (LOTO), or energy isolation standard.
This standard requires the application of markings and barriers that prevent unauthorized persons from energizing and operating equipment.
Energy in any form becomes hazardous when it builds to a certain level or is released inadvertently or unexpectedly. Lockout/tagout refers to specific practices and procedures that safeguard employees from the unexpected startup of machinery and equipment, or the release of hazardous energy, during service or maintenance activities.
