I
n accordance with the rules and regulations of the Occupational
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), all affected
employees must be notified that the machine or equipment will
be shut down and locked out to perform repair or maintenance
work. The work area must be checked to ensure that all
personnel have been removed or safely repositioned. The
machine or equipment power supply shall be locked in the OFF
position or disconnected from the energy source. Blue Giant®
strongly recommends that only OSHA-approved lockout
devices be utilized.
The energy isolating device must bear a prominent warning tag
indicating that work is being done on the equipment and the
name of the authorized employee responsible for the lockout. It
is mandatory that tagout notices not be susceptible to
deterioration or illegibility due to weather conditions or exposure
to chemicals and moisture.
Always lockout and tagout any power source before
performing any work on any electrical
devices
or
electrical controls according to OSHA regulations
and approved local electrical codes.
