Plant Lock-out/Tag-out Plan

This Plant Lock-out/Tag-out (LOTO) Management Plan ensures that all energy supplies to machinery and equipment are turned off, locked out and tagged out during maintenance or repairs. It is designed to prevent accidental start-ups, machine movements or uncontrolled energy releases, helping businesses maintain a safe working environment.

It sets out the review procedure, definitions, the plant lock-out/tag-out policy, the LOTO procedure, the procedure for restoring equipment to service, an isolation permit to work and a LOTO standard operating procedure template.

It suits businesses of all sizes, and is especially useful for maintenance teams and safety managers who need clear guidelines to manage energy control procedures safely.
