Employee Training and Communication
Why must employees be trained?
- So that employees acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for
the safe application, usage and removal of the energy controls [29 CFR 1910.147(c)(7)(i)].
The standard requires different levels of training for the
three categories of employees; what are the differences in the training required for the
three categories?
- Authorized employees must receive training on the recognition of
applicable hazardous energy sources, the type and magnitude of the energy
available in the workplace, and the methods and means necessary for energy
isolation and control
[29 CFR 1910.147(c)(7)(i)(A)].
- Other employees (those whose work activities are or may be in an
area where energy control procedures may be utilized) must be instructed about the
procedure and about the prohibition relating to attempts to restart or reenergize machines
or equipment that are locked out or tagged out [29 CFR 1910.147(c)(7)(i)(C)].
