Lockout tagout for authorized employees

The authorized employee identifies the source of hazardous energy

Preparation

The equipment is restarted

Step four

What must be done in the rare case, where a lock cannot physically be used to isolate a hazardous energy source prior to performing maintenance

A highly visible descriptive tag must be placed, indicating that the device shall not be operated Some other form of energy, isolation must be implemented to ensure that the device is at least safe as if it were physically locked out

An employee who needs to understand how the lockout tag out process affect the work

Affected employees

An employee who is trained to implement the lockout tag out process and knowledgeable of how to implement the lockout tag using the equipment, specific lockout tag out procedures

Authorized employee

In addition to the physical locks and tags a lockout tag out program must include

Establish procedures for the use of those locks and tags equipment specific procedures for implementing hazardous energy control Authorized employees thoroughly trained in the above procedures A management system that ensures the above procedures are reviewed at least annually

An affected employee may install lockout tag out locks or tags and also test equipment to verify. It is in zero mechanical state, and cannot be operated.

False

To authorize employee, isolates the machine or equipment from its hazardous energy sources, using energy isolating devices in accordance with the equipment specific hazardous energy control procedure

Isolation

Authorized employee verifies, that the machine or equipment has been properly, isolated or deenergize

Isolation verification

What is defined as the placement of a authorized employee specific lock and descriptive tag on one or more energy isolating devices?

Lockout tag out

The authorized employee affixes locks and tags to each energy energy isolating

Lockout tagout

The machine or equipment is shut down in accordance with the equipment shutdown procedure

Shut down

The work area is inspected to ensure that non-essential items such as tools and spare parts have been removed and that all machines are equipment components are up operational intact

Step one

Identify the correct order of the steps required to implement and effective hazardous energy control program

Step one preparation Step two shut down Step three isolation step four lockout tagout Step five Stored energy check Step six isolation verification

Each lock and tag is removed from hazardous energy isolate device by each employee who applied the lock and tag

Step three

The work area is checked to ensure that all employees have been safely positioned or have cleared the area and all affected employees are notified that the equipment will be restarted

Step two

The authorized employee, relieves, discharges, disconnects restraint blocks drains or otherwise render safe, any sources of potential hazardous, stored or residual energy

Stored energy check

Which of the following are reasons why an employee would need to be retrained on the lockout tag out process

There is a change in the employees job responsibilities There is a change in the equipment or processes There is a change in the lockout tag out process or the equipment specific as it is energy control procedures There is a reason to believe the employee needs to be retrained

Uncontrolled hazardous energy is a problem because it can cause damage to equipment and significant energy to employee

True

Uncontrolled hazardous energy is a problem because it can cause damage to equipment and significant injury to and to employees

True

When equipment is to be locked out and tagged employees affected by the shutdown must informed even if they will not assist in the lockout tag out process

True

A primary authorized employees responsible for which of the following during a group lockout

Verifying the integrity of all isolation methods used in the lockout Ensure isolation device is continuously protected Ensuring that all group members and effective employees in the area from different work groups are protected against exposure to hazardous in energy Removing the group lockout device only after all other group, members have removed their own locks

Locks used by authorize employees for lockout must be

Durable Used only for the purpose of lockout tag out Standardized within a facility by color, shape, or size Uniquely identified and associated with an employee

Hazardous energy is any type of energy that can be released during the movement of machine that can cause harm that can harm an individual primary sources of hazardous energy includes which of the following

Electrical energy Hydraulic energy Pneumatic energy Mechanical energy Engulfment Thermal energy Chemical energy
