Control of Hazardous Energy (LO/TO)
October 8, 2026, from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM
The OSHA standard for The Control of Hazardous Energy (Lockout/Tagout), 29 CFR 1910.147, addresses the practices and procedures necessary to disable machinery or equipment, thereby preventing the release of hazardous energy while employees perform servicing and maintenance activities. Employers are to develop, implement, and enforce an energy control program, and inspect the energy control procedures at least annually. The standard gives the employer flexibility to develop an energy control program suited to the needs of the particular workplace and the types of machines and equipment being maintained and serviced. If you are new to Lockout/Tagout this program will give you the basics you need to know. For those who are more familiar with the standard, this program will serve as a valuable review.
