How to Plan Your LOTO Affected Employee Training

Required curriculum for affected employee training is clearAccording to the OSHA standard 1910.147, there are specific requirements that must be included in the affected employee training. When there are tagout systems used on site, additional requirements are mandatory to be included into the affected employee’s training. An effective training program goes beyond the basicsIn addition to what OSHA requires in affected employee training, there are other tools and materials that should also be included to ensure that the training is as effective as possible. Choose videos that deal with affected employee-related accidents, or accidents that could be avoided in general due to lockout/tagout. If the affected employee sees a piece of equipment that is locked out, they must stay far enough away from it until the maintenance is completed and the lockout is removed.
