Understand the basics on LOTO and injury prevention, best practices, and the pain points for OSHA compliance.
Electrical, crushing and amputation injuries are often fatal and are classified as severe events that generally trigger an on-site OSHA inspection. Often the root cause of such incidents is a failure in the lockout/tagout (LOTO) process or training deficiencies. Violations of OSHA’s general industry LOTO standard, 29 CFR 1910.147, are always among the Top 10 Cited Standards because of the numerous requirements and documentation mandates. In addition, for several categories of work, a LOTO permit to work (PTW) is required. This topic will address the basics on LOTO and injury prevention, best practices, and the pain points for OSHA compliance. The speaker will also address best practices for documenting the PTW and relevant national consensus standards, as well as provide a forecast of LOTO changes in enforcement or regulations that may be coming in the new administration.
Learning Objectives
- You will be able to define the four types of LOTO safe work permits and why they are critical to worker protection.
