  2. Energy Control Program

  3. Training Review • At the end of this training you will be required to complete an on-line quiz. • Please review the information until you feel comfortable with it.

  4. Every year hundreds of people are injured or killed when the equipment they are working on accidentally turns on.

  5. These injuries and deaths could have been prevented by using a lockout/tagout.

  6. The purpose of DFCM’s Lockout/Tagout Program is to protect you.

  7. At the completion of this training you will be able to: • Be aware of different types of energy. • Recognize energy sources in the workplace. • Conduct a lockout/tagout. • Know the limitations of tags.

  8. There are many types of energy present in facilities managed by DFCM • Hydraulic • Electrical • Chemical • Mechanical • Thermal • Pneumatic

  9. Each of these types of energy poses hazards if adequate precautions are not taken.

  10. Lockout/Tagout Procedures

  11. Every time equipment that relies on energy to operate is worked on it MUST be locked or tagged out.

  12. An exception to this rule is when you are working on a piece of equipment that can only receive energy through a plug.If you have continuous control of the cord and plug, no lockout/tagout is necessary.

  13. Work Request You should be able to tell from your work request if a lockout/tagout will be necessary. If you are unsure about whether a lockout/tagout is required, check with your supervisor

  14. Begin a Lockout/Tagout Log Lockout/Tagout Logs are available at each facility. If a Lockout/Tagout is necessary for your work order, get a Log and complete the necessary information such as equipment number, name, etc. Sometimes you may not have access to a Log before you work on equipment. In this case, complete your assignment and then fill out a Lockout/Tagout Log after you are done.

  15. Gather necessary equipment Every person has a lock assigned to them for locking out equipment. This equipment protects you! A variety of additional lockout/tagout devices are available. Choose one that is appropriate to your needs.

  16. Notify affected employees Tell co-workers and other people who are effected by the shutdown of equipment that you are beginning a lockout/tagout. Complete a tag with the necessary information

  17. Prepare the equipment for shutdown

  18. Isolate energy sources

  19. Place the lock and tag Equipment that can receive a lock, must be locked out. Tags are not substitutes for locks.

  20. Test and make sure the equipment you are working on is not energized.

  21. Complete repairs or maintenance and remove the lockout/tagout

  22. Re-energize and test the equipment

  23. Remove tools and equipment from the work area.

  24. Notify affected employees Let employees affected by the lockout/tagout know that it has been completed and removed.

  25. Complete the Lockout/Tagout Log

  26. Different types of machinery may need different types of equipment to lock it out. • Make sure that you have the right equipment to perform the lockout/tagout.

  27. Review of Lockout/Tagout • Obtain work order • Begin Lockout/Tagout Log • Gather equipment • Notify affected employees • Prepare equipment for shutdown • Isolate energy sources • Place the locks and tags • Test equipment and make sure the equipment is not energized • Complete repairs or maintenance • Remove lockout/tagout • Re-energize and test the equipment • Remove tools and equipment from the work area • Notify affected employees • Complete a Lockout/Tagout Log

  28. This is a photograph taken of an electrical panel that was not locked out. Instead of a proper lockout/tagout, red tape was placed over the breakers.

  29. You must use DFCM’s Lockout/Tagout policy when working on equipment.Corrective action may be taken when required safety procedures are not followed.

  30. Group Lockout/Tagout Frequently more than one person will work on a piece of equipment. In such cases each person should attach his or her lock to the equipment. Hasps, which are available at all facilities, can hold several locks at a time. This protects everyone working on the equipment since the equipment can’t beenergized until every lock has been removed.

  31. Contractors At times contractors will also work on equipment. They must use a lockout/tagout program that protects them, as well as you. If you have questions about a contractor’s lockout/tagout process, check with your supervisor.

  32. Tags If equipment can’t be locked out, tags must be used.

  33. WARNING • Tags don’t provide the physical restrain provided by a lock. • Tags are not to be lifted. • Tags must be legible. • Tags must be securely fixed in an obvious location. • Tags can’t be reused.

  34. Review • Energy can be deadly. • Following the Lockout/Tagout Program can protect you from injury. • Correct lockout/tagouts include the actions which have been described. • Tags do not provide the same level of protection that locks do.

  35. Congratulations! • You have now completed the Lockout/Tagout Training. • Click to take the On-line Quiz when you are ready.
