Approximately 3 million workers service equipment and face the


greatest risk of injury if lockout/tagout is not properly implemented.
Compliance with the lockout/tagout standard (29 CFR 1910.147)
prevents an estimated 120 fatalities and 50,000 injuries each year.

Introduction of HSE Presentation FROM HSEPROF.COM

• "Lockout/Tagout (LOTO)" refers to specific practices and procedures to


safeguard employees from the unexpected energization or startup of
machinery and equipment or the release of hazardous energy during
service or maintenance activities.

• This requires that a designated individual turns off and disconnects the
machinery or equipment from its energy source(s) before performing
service or maintenance and that the authorized employee(s) either lock
or tag the energy-isolating device(s) to prevent the release of hazardous
energy and take steps to verify that the energy has been isolated
effectively.
