Authorized and Affected Employee Training
"Authorized " students will be given much more detail
and hands-on exercises regarding Energy Control Procedures
This training session will ensure that the students understand
the potential for exposure and their liability and responsibility
as it relates to the company's Lockout Tagout Program. Individuals
who participate in this training will be given a comprehensive
overview of the Standard, your written policies and procedures
and how energized machines and equipment affect their daily
activities. Key points that will be cover in this course include:
1. The control of hazardous energy must be done according
to a six-step procedure:
• Preparation for shutdown
• Equipment shutdown
• Equipment isolation
• Application of lockout tagout devices
• Control of stored energy
• Equipment-isolation verification
2. Before removing the lock:
• Make sure equipment is safe
• Conduct a head count
• Notify all affected personnel that lockout is being
removed
3. Special situations to be aware of:
• Outside contractors
• Temporarily reactivating equipment
• Servicing that lasts more than one shift
• Removal of lockout by personnel who did not apply
it
Participants will receive materials/handouts needed to assist
in subject retention. Class will last approximately 1 hour
for "Affected" personnel and 2 hours for an introduction
to "Authorized" personnel. The session for "Authorized"
individuals can last many hours when specific energy controls
procedures are being discussed and explained. The session
may consist of lecture, handouts, powerpoint and video presentation.
