Lock and Tag: Lockout/Tagout

Lock-out/tag-out is basically isolating or disabling machinery from its source of energy. The video points out the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) enacted lock-out/tag-out regulations to prevent electrical shock or injury from occurring in commercial or industrial worksites. This video explains what lock-out/tag-out procedures are, how to properly lock-out/tag-out, as well as post lock-out/tag-out procedures.

Energy may still exist in an active or stored state. The video demonstrates how to dissipate energy after machinery has been locked out/ tagged out. Depending on the type of equipment you're dealing with energy can be dissipated by installing additional lock-out/tag-out items, bleeding the energy, or with electrical equipment grounding the energy to drain it from the source. In addition to knowing how to correctly lock-out/tag-out, employees must also know the Energy Control Plan.

Use this online training video to teach workers about lock-out/tag-out procedures for different equipment, including electrical, hydraulic and pneumatic systems. Workers properly trained on lock-out/tag-out procedures help prevent accidents and create a safer workplace.
