5 G RANT P RIDECO Segments Introduction Definitions Training Lockout/Tagout Procedures Generic Energy Isolation Methods Restoring Service to Equipment Locks & Tags Periodic Inspection Summary

6 G RANT P RIDECO 1.Authorized employee: Any person who locks out or tags out machines or equipment in order to perform servicing or maintenance on that machine or equipment. Definitions

7 G RANT P RIDECO 2.Affected employees: Persons who work in areas where energy sources are locked or tagged out, but are not directly involved in the isolation activity. Definitions

8 G RANT P RIDECO 3.Energy isolating device: A mechanical device that physically blocks or isolates energy. Definitions

9 G RANT P RIDECO 4.Energy source: An energy source is any electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, gravitational, chemical, nuclear, thermal, or other source of energy that could cause injury. Definitions

10 G RANT P RIDECO All energy sources associated with equipment must be locked and/or tagged out in the position which isolates the employee(s) from the hazardous energy, when maintenance or servicing work is being performed by either company or contract personnel. Definitions

11 G RANT P RIDECO Operating supervisors will be responsible for ensuring that all equipment and energy sources are properly locked and tagged prior to starting work. An electrical watch person (similar to a fire watch) is prohibited as a substitution for this procedure. Definitions

12 G RANT P RIDECO The use and procedures of the lockout/tagout program shall be reviewed annually by appropriate operations personnel. Training shall be documented. Definitions

13 G RANT P RIDECO The Operations Center is responsible for determining the degree of specificity of written lockout procedures for equipment within their area. Definitions

14 G RANT P RIDECO Whenever contract employees are scheduled to perform work covered by this program, both employers (Company and contractor) must comply with the requirements of this section. Definitions

15 G RANT P RIDECO This program does not apply to: Handheld power tools or stationary equipment whose electrical power may be controlled by the unplugging of equipment from the energy source, when both plug and cord are under the control of the employee performing the service or maintenance. Definitions
