LOCKOUT AND TAGOUT
Description
The terms lockout and tagout refer to practices and procedures that protect workers from unexpected activation or start-up of machines and equipment or from the dangerous release of energy when servicing machines. This course explains the importance of the lockout and tagout process in protecting the health and safety of people.
Employers must train ALL employees in the basic concepts of hazardous materials control, including energy isolation, locking out and tagging out control devices, ensuring power is turned off, and clearing hazardous points before re-energizing the equipment.

This training must enable them to recognize tasks likely to expose them to dangers, as well as effective methods to limit this exposure.
