Can you think of a scenario in your classroom or shop where following a written Lockout/Tagout procedure would be essential before working on equipment?
Things to consider:
What steps would you take to safely shut down and isolate the equipment?
Which locks and tags would you use, and what information should be included on the tags?
How would you verify that the equipment is completely de-energized before beginning work?
How would you document the procedure to ensure accountability and compliance?
Who could be affected if the procedure was skipped or not properly recorded?
Record your answer in your Student Workbook.
