Lockout/Tagout signs protect against the unexpected energization or start up of machines and equipment that could injure employees during service or maintenance. Lockout signs and labels describe how to render machines and equipment inoperative. Tagouts are used when equipment is incapable of being shut
down. Tagouts indicate that the equipment being controlled
may not be operated unti According to OSHA, both lockout and tagout signs need to be standardized within the facility by either color, shape or size. In the case of tagouts, the printing and format need to be standardized and include warnings about hazardous conditions if the machine or equipment is energized. They also need include a legend such as: "Do Not Start. Do Not Open. Do Not Close. Do Not Energize. Do Not Operate." Return to the beginning of the Sign Making Tutorial>> |
