At Lotomaster, we are aiming to build the most comprehensive platform which is able to fulfill the demand for Lockout / Tagout (LOTO) products in Europe and identifying the best LOTO solutions for our clients.
The EU Guidelines 89/655 specify the minimum requirements concerning safety and health while using equipment. Paragraph 2.14 lays down that “every piece of equipment must be fitted with clearly visible devices with which it can be separated from every energy source”.
OSHA requires LOTO Padlocks to be clearly identifiable, only to be used to control energy sources and they should be durable, resistant and easy to install
OSHA requires a formal Lockout/Tagout program. An effective lockout/tagout program should include the following eight steps.
Whatever lockout or tagout devices are used, they must be the only devices the employer uses for energy-isolating devices to control hazardous energy.
