Lockout Training
There are many types of potentially hazardous energy including, electrical, thermal, chemical, pneumatic, hydraulic, mechanical and gravitational energy. All such forms of energy must be locked out, blocked or released to ensure that machinery or equipment does not turn on or move during installation, repair or maintenance.
Failure to control these hazards has the potential to cause severe workplace injuries.
This course is designed to ensure employers, management, and workers can identify the hazards associated with uncontrolled energy and the proper methods of controlling that energy through a soundly developed and implemented lockout program.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
Explain lockout and associated definitions
Identify hazardous energy control program elements
Identify proper lockout devices
List the steps to lockout
Identify different lockout processes
Recognize alternate hazardous energy control methods
