What is lockout?
Lockout is the use of locks to prevent machinery or equipment from being started accidentally when maintenance work is being done.
Why is lockout important?
Every year, workers are seriously injured because machinery or equipment was not properly locked out.
This means crushed limbs, severed fingers, even death.
If you work on machinery or equipment that requires lockout, you must follow written safe work procedures.
Take the time to follow these procedures; they will protect you from injuries that will affect you and your
family.

There will be a quiz at the end of the course.

After successful completion of this course, participants will receive a certificate of completion.
