2. Safety Training for Lockout - Tagoutin the Construction Industry

3. Disclaimer/Usage Notes • Photos shown in this presentation may depict situations that are not in compliance with applicable OSHA/MSHA/FHWA requirements. • It is not the intent of the content developers to provide compliance-based training in this presentation, the intent is more to address hazard awareness in the construction and mining industry, and to recognize the overlapping hazards present in many workplaces. • It should NOT be assumed that the suggestions, comments, or recommendations contained herein constitute a thorough review of the applicable standards, nor should discussion of “issues” or “concerns” be construed as a prioritization of hazards or possible controls. Where opinions (“best practices”) have been expressed, it is important to remember that safety issues in general and jobsites specifically will require a great deal of site- or hazard-specificity – a “one size fits all” approach is not recommended, nor will it likely be very effective.

4. Disclaimer/Usage Notes (continued) • No representation is made as to the thoroughness of the presentation, nor to the exact methods of remediation to be taken. It is understood that site conditions vary constantly, and that the developers of this content cannot be held responsible for safety problems they did not address or could not anticipate, nor those which have been discussed herein or during physical presentation. It is the responsibility of the employer, its subcontractors, and its employees to comply with all pertinent rules and regulations in the jurisdiction in which they work. • It is assumed that individuals using this presentation or content to augment their training programs will be “qualified” to do so, and that said presenters will be otherwise prepared to answer questions, solve problems, and discuss issues with their audiences. • Areas of particular concern (or especially suited to discussion) have additional information provided in the “notes” section of slides throughout the program…as a presenter, you should be prepared to discuss all of the potential issues/concerns, or problems inherent in those photos particularly.

5. Lockout - Tagout Control Of Hazardous Energy

6. You will learn… • Purpose of lockout-tagout • Requirements for LOTO • Types of hazardous energy • Procedures for LOTO

7. This happens often: Employee accidentally leaned on the start switch & turned on the machine himself...

8. Lockout • Prevents release of hazardous energy • Lock placed on appropriate energy isolating device that is in the off or closed position

9. Tagout • Identifies problem • Identifies lockout date • Identifies person • Used by itself only when cannot be locked out

10. Lockout/Tagout • Repaired • Serviced • Lubricated • Cleaned • Un-jammed • Adjusted • Maintained • Guard removed

11. Causes Of Injury • Failure to stop equipment • Failure to disconnect from power source • Failure to bleed energy • Accidental restarting of equipment • Failure to clear work areas before restarting

12. Types of Energy • Electrical • Mechanical • Chemical • Thermal • Hydraulic • Pneumatic

13. Mechanical Energy • Kinetic - machinery in motion • Gears • Belts • Potential - stored energy • Weights & springs • Pistons under pressure • Hydraulic controls

14. Potential Energy

15. LOTO Procedure • Prepare for shutdown • Shutdown equipment • Isolate all energy sources • Place locks & tags • Release stored energy • Verify isolation

16. 1. Prepare • Understand equipment hazards • Notify others of shutdown

17. 2. Shutdown • Normal shutdown procedure • Turn all switches to OFF • Shut all control valves • Disable all sources of energy

18. 3. Isolate Sources • Check all possible energy sources • Shut valves • Open breakers & disconnects

19. 4. Place Locks • Valves • Breaker/electrical disconnects • Block or disconnect all lines

20. Plug Locks Ball Valve Gate Valve Hasp Electrical Hydraulic Pneumatic Lockout Devices

21. Use of Locks • Use only those issued to you • Never use another workers lock or tag • Tell supervisor if you need more LOTO equipment

22. 5. Stored Energy • Block or release springs • Block elevated parts • Stop rotating flywheels • Relieve system pressure • Drain fluids • Vent gases

23. 6. Verification • Prior to servicing or maintenance, authorized employee must verify that equipment is isolated by turning it on

24. Release From LOTO • Put all guards back • Remove tools • Inform others of startup • Restore system connections • Remove locks & tags • Restore equipment to normal • Conduct normal startup

25. Who Can Remove Locks & Tags? • Only the employee who placed the lock and/or tag • A supervisor, after obtaining permission from the worker who placed the tag

26. Question • Equipment already has a lock and tag on it.  Do I have to place my own locks & tags? YES.  everyone working on equipment must place their own locks and tags

27. Contractors • All contractor employees must follow our LOTO procedures!

28. No Lockout • Performed or witnessed someone doing work without locking out • Disconnecting device is too far away or not convenient • Worker by themselves and felt no need to lockout • Not wanting to shut down equipment

29. LOTO Protects You • Use proper lockout - tagout procedures • Please be careful when working on equipment

33. Think First • Jaw crusher turned off… • No locks in sight… • Yellow hat is a man inside...
