Course Overview

This intensive Lock-Out Tag-Out (LOTO) training course provides participants with essential knowledge and practical skills required for controlling hazardous energy during equipment maintenance and servicing operations. The course covers fundamental energy isolation principles along with advanced lockout procedures and regulatory compliance requirements.

Participants will learn to apply industry best practices and mandatory standards including OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147, NFPA 70E, and ANSI Z244.1 to ensure worker safety during maintenance activities. This course combines theoretical concepts with hands-on practical applications and real-world scenarios to ensure participants gain immediately applicable skills while emphasizing zero-energy verification and comprehensive hazard control.
