Lockout Tagout (LOTO) Authorized User Training

Safex will review OSHA regulations regarding performing lockout tagout (LOTO) on machines or equipment that may unexpectedly start up and cause serious injury to an exposed employee. Attendees will gain a thorough understanding and demonstrate the eight steps to performing LOTO. They will demonstrate how to properly install lockout devices on isolation points including valves, disconnect switches, and circuit breakers. Attendees will develop a written LOTO procedure for a given piece of equipment during the training.

At the completion of the course, participants will be able to:

• State the difference between an authorized and affected employee;
• List scenarios when LOTO is required;
• List applicable hazardous energy sources:
