YOU MUST COMPLY WITH OSHA STANDARD 29 CFR 1910.147 (The Control of Hazardous Energy) - LOCK IT OUT!
What is OSHA STANDARD 29 CFR 1910.147?
OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.147 states: "This standard covers the servicing and maintenance of machines and equipment in
which the unexpected energization or start up of the machines or equipment, or release of stored energy could cause injury to employees. This standard establishes minimum performance requirements for the control of such hazardous energy."
When to use Lockout/Tagout devices
Protecting your employees from accidental start up is a necessary first step in conducting proper repairs, servicing and maintenance of machinery and equipment. Take the necessary measures to ensure that a device is set in the off position without chance of start up by using a quality Lockout/Tagout product. Establish a program consisting of energy control procedures, employee training and periodic inspections.
To help you comply with OSHA standards we offer a range of products, including lockout devices and tagout devices which will secure hazardous energy sources.
