Lockout Tagout is a systematic procedure to isolate hazardous energy sources before maintenance or repair. It prevents unexpected machine start‑up, which causes thousands of injuries annually. This Lockout Tagout LOTO training covers the complete LOTO program from energy identification to auditing. For a foundational overview, see Introduction to Lockout Tagout (LOTO).

The six steps are: 1) Preparation and shutdown, 2) Isolation of energy sources, 3) Application of lockout/tagout devices, 4) Stored energy verification and dissipation, 5) Verification of isolation, and 6) Release from lockout/tagout. Module 3 covers these in detail. For machine safety fundamentals, explore Introduction to Machine Safety.

OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 requires that an authorized employee conduct a periodic inspection of LOTO procedures at least annually. The audit must be performed by someone other than the person using the procedure. Module 4 (Auditing LOTO) explains how to document and correct deficiencies. See HAZCOM/OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) for chemical hazard control.

Electrical, mechanical (rotating parts, pinch points), hydraulic, pneumatic, chemical, thermal, and gravitational (stored energy) are the main categories. Module 1 of this LOTO training online covers each source with real‑world food plant examples. For personal protective equipment related to these hazards, see Personal Protection Equipment (PPEs) at WorkPlace.
