Lockout/Tagout Periodic Inspection
Lockout/Tagout periodic inspections are essential for ensuring that energy control procedures are correctly followed and remain effective. Regular inspections verify that equipment is properly isolated during maintenance, reducing the risk of accidental energization, injuries, or fatalities. They help identify gaps in training, update procedures as needed, and maintain compliance with safety regulations. Consistent LOTO inspections strengthen workplace safety, protect employees, and ensure reliable, hazard-free operations.
