General Health and Safety

Lock Out Tag Out (LOTO)

LOTO (Lockout/Tagout) training teaches workers how to safely shut down machinery, isolate energy sources, and apply locks/tags to prevent accidental startup during maintenance.

This comprehensive training course covers hazard identification, legal responsibilities (such as PUWER), and the 7-9 step LOTO process, often including “Try-Out” (LOTOTO) to verify isolation.

Maintenance workers, service technicians, operators, and supervisors who work on or near hazardous machinery.

Identification of hazardous energy (electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic), proper application of locks/tags, and release of stored energy.

Preparation, shutdown, isolation, locking/tagging, stored energy release, verification, and returning to service.

Many courses emphasise the “Try-Out” step to ensure the equipment is fully de-energised before work starts.
