This webinar will examine the importance of lockout/tagout procedures as a crucial “safe work practice,” review the regulatory requirements overseeing development and execution of lockout/tagout procedures, and cover application criteria for their use.

We’ll examine relevant definitions, communication, periodic inspections, training, retraining, certification, and additional requirements for lockout/tagout compliance.
