Lockout/tagout (LOTO) is one of OSHA’s annual top ten most-cited safety violations. The fines resulting from these violations cost U.S.-based companies hundreds of thousands of dollars. Citations can be easily avoided by developing a program to protect your employees while they are working around industrial machinery. Fromm’s team of experts is prepared to work with you to implement or assess machine safety programs to make your employees’ safety a number one priority and keep your operation OSHA compliant.
Fromm’s lockout/tagout services begin with our team visiting your facility for an overview and assessment of your machines and current LOTO procedures. Our experts will carefully document the control and access points for each machine you request. Our team will then put together a written procedure outlining the steps that need to be taken to perform a safe lockout of each machine to put it into a safe state. They will then install LOTO placards and procedures.
We’ll work with you to ensure your workforce is properly trained on the LOTO procedures we implement before handing you the reins. Unlike other companies, Fromm does not use proprietary LOTO software. This means you stay in control of how you’d like to implement the LOTO procedures as outlined by Fromm across your facility as your lines evolve, expand, and upgrade.
We also offer annual LOTO audits to ensure your safety program remains up to date and your workforce remains informed and safe.
