Dangers of Remaining Uncertified
The importance of Lockout Tagout Training programs:
- Preventing the unexpected startup or release of energy from machines and equipment during servicing or maintenance.
- Employees face severe injuries, such as amputations, fractures, or even death if this hazardous energy is not controlled.
- Not only are these procedures essential for employee safety, they are required.
- Lockout-tagout is one of the top ten most frequently cited standards during worksite inspections in the United States, resulting in large fines to cited businesses.
- There are around 3,000 citations for lockout-tagout violations a year. The majority of those citations are in manufacturing facilities.
