Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) is a system ensuring equipment is safely powered down during repairs so that unexpected energization, startup, or release of stored energy cannot harm workers. Required by OSHA’s Control of Hazardous Energy standard (29 CFR 1910.147), LOTO protects electricians, roofers, siding crews, and other trades who service or maintain powered machinery—from compressors and panel saws to aerial lifts and HVAC units.

Failing to implement Lockout/Tagout can lead to severe injuries, costly OSHA citations, and project delays. By integrating this system ensuring equipment is safely powered down during repairs, contractors like Precision General Contracting maintain a safer jobsite, protect their workforce, and demonstrate industry-leading professionalism to clients and inspectors alike.
