lockout tagout accidents

Continuous advances in machines, equipment and process technology are making companies more efficient, productive, and competitive – necessary attributes in a global economy. As technology has advanced, however, the energy sources driving machines have become more powerful and sophisticated, making servicing and maintenance tasks more demanding, complex and often - more dangerous. The increase in output has always come with a cost in terms of human life. Several thousand workers worldwide succumb to the release of hazardous energies at work each year.  Everyday such horrific accidents continue to happen at the workplace.

The rapid evolution and growing complexity of modern industrial technology have led to the emergence of the safety movement in the past 100 years. Still, unfortunately, many of those lessons have come at the price of human pain and injuries. While safety at work has progressed over the years, injury risks for those, who operate, service and maintain equipment persist. Workers who service industrial machinery and equipment face unique hazards due to their close contact with equipment, frequently working in dangerous zones beyond machine guards that protect workers during normal production operations.

Their nature of work influences the likelihood of encounters with energy sources and materials containing energy.

control hazardous energies at workplace

People often relate to high voltage electrical energy when referencing hazardous energy at work. In reality, hazardous energies refer to electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, chemical, nuclear, thermal, gravitational, or any other form of energy that could cause injury due to the unintended motion energising, start-up, or release of stored or residual energy in machinery, equipment, pipelines or process systems - Undermining the risks associated with uncontrolled release of hazardous energies results in injuries and deaths of personnel on one hand and damage to facilities on the other hand.

In order to control the risks associated with hazardous energies at work, countries around the world have introduced their safety standards. One of the stringiest standards for controlling hazardous energies at work is OSHA’s 29 CFR 1910.147 – Lockout/Tagout.

 

Lockout Tagout refers to the placement of locks and tags on an energy isolating device in accordance with the established procedures to ensure that the machinery, equipment, or process cannot be started while anyone is exposed. Safety measures like lockout tagout are more important today than ever before. Work accidents still destroy more than 9,900 lives a year, and 1.7 million workers suffer disabling injuries, which cost industries more than 63.3 billion annually. The lockout tagout standard remains to be the most violated standard in the manufacturing industry and has been averaging to be the fifth most cited standard in OSHA’s Top 10 violation list for the past 2 decades.

Non-compliance with lockout tagout standard

Non-compliance with the lockout tagout standard results in losses and costs, both directly and indirectly. Direct costs are often the tip of the iceberg. Examples of costs of non-compliance include-

  • Loss of human life and a family’s loved one
  • Regulatory fines and prosecutions
  • Accident investigation costs
  • Worker compensation claim
  • Medical bills
  • Time lost from work/ lost production time
  • Facility/ property/ machine repair
  • Product damage
  • Clean up and start-up of operations interrupted by the accident
  • Time to hire or train a worker to replace the injured worker
  • Low morale of employees
  • Most importantly, long term loss of company reputation, to name a few.

To achieve compliance with regulatory standard and reap its optimum benefit, it is critical to have a scientific and systematic lockout tagout program in place that is highly effective and sustainable. World class companies maintain effective lockout tagout programs to prevent predictable losses. It is necessary that the risks of using hazardous energies at work be balanced against the benefit of increased productivity and efficiency. There are moral, legal, and financial reasons that make it unacceptable to put worker’s safety at risk, as it’s unacceptable for workers to suffer injury as a result of doing their job. The law requires responsible people in the organisation to assess reasonably foreseeable risks from the company’s activities and put in place control measures that will reduce the risk – so far as is reasonably practicable. This is entirely fair; after all, it’s the companies that create the risks.

how to improve lockout tagout program
online lockout tagout courses by E-Square Training Academy

Despite the simplicity, quick installation, low cost, and severe consequences of non-compliance, lockout tagout is still considered troublesome and inconvenient by many. A joint effort from the industries is required to remove lockout tagout from OSHA’s Top 10 violation list. This can be achieved through an improved level of awareness and advanced training programs for the workers.

Not all safety trainings are created equal!

Energy is all around us and comes in many different forms. It is a useful and necessary element when any work is performed. But along with its usefulness, it can be dangerous and fatal. Interestingly enough, year after year after year, injures are sustained and lives are lost. Even worse, as far as lockout tagout is concerned, the number of violations is constantly increasing. It is climbing the list towards the top; and why? What is it going to take for workers like you to realise the task at hand is serious? And dangerous?

 

First and foremost, safety starts with knowledge and basic understanding of the standards governing your specific industry and work situation. Workplace safety culture begins with a well-trained workforce. OSHA believes that “self-paced, interactive computer-based training can serve as a valuable training tool in the context of an overall training program.
