After you go through the headache of establishing lockout tagout procedures, it is important to have a procedure or plan of some kind in place to maintain those procedures. OSHA very heavily regulates lockout tagout procedures, and they can, and will, update their policies if needed to maintain the safest possible work environment.

OSHA regulates lockout tagout procedures with Standard 1910.147, which is often considered one of the most difficult standards to understand and comply with. It is no surprise, then, that even properly created lockout tagout procedures are often quickly out of compliance due to either regulatory changes or changes to a company’s structure. And the unfortunate truth is that most companies monitor and maintain their lockout tagout procedures in-house with a woefully understaffed and unprepared safety team.

It is fully customizable, fully scalable, and will help you monitor both changes at your company and regulatory changes.
