Course Overview
The purpose of Lockout Tagout (LOTO) is to minimize the risk of accidentally releasing hazardous energy. In order for maintenance or servicing to begin, hazardous energy must be isolated or rendered inoperative. Doing this will prevent the potential for a devastating injury or death from unexpected energization.
There are four components to this Lockout/Tagout Training course:
- Chapter 1: LOTO Roles and Responsibilities
- Chapter 2: Hazardous Forms of Energy
- Chapter 3: Developing LOTO Procedures, and
- Chapter 4: Locking Out and Tagging Out Equipment
After completing this course, you will be required to do a final exam to test your knowledge.
