Lock Out/ Tag Out what? Just post a handmade sign, dude

[–] [email protected] 58 points 1 year ago (4 children)

When preparing/working on a machine, TURN IT OFF. IT IS LITERALLY THE FIRST STEP WHEN REPAIR ANY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT YOU STUPID PIECE OF SHIT.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Sometimes this isn't possible if the machine needs to stay up to temp, like with plastic injection molders. In those cases, the operation can usually be stopped by a padlock placed somewhere on the controls. There's usually training about it for everyone involved to make sure they know what's up.

And unplug it. And lock it out so some dumbass can't plug it back in and turn it on.

I can't read, I wonder if this is the button for free candy

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 year ago

They’re putting a lot of faith in that tape.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Maybe just a little push

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Also the machine seems to be pull to start and push to stop...

The airlock pressurizer is keeping them alive. DO NOT PRESS THE AIRLOCK BUTTON UNLESS THEIR SPACESUITS ARE SEALED AND TETHERED. You don't want the maintenance crew shot into outer space!

4th February that's an old note, better remove it and press.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Had the same thought. The American date format must be the least intuitive, but as a nerd that likes to order files and folders YYYY/MM/DD is just a win.

Not really, that's just the standard of ISO 8601. In the past I used slashes as well until someone mentioned standard is to use dashes and not slashes. Dashes also seem to have better readability.

That’s just for weak machines who need to be constantly reminded what year it is.

Should we lock & tag out the circuit?

Nah, this shitty sign should keep us safe.

Y’all need tag out clasps

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You lock it with 6 pad locks?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think it's so you can create "and" conditions for unlocking. IE: If you've got two locks, each with their own key, both person 1 AND person 2 need to unlock it. So you can have multiple people and/or multiple crews working on the machine across different aspects. Maybe one crew is doing electric, the other some kind of plumbing, and they're working at different times. When one crew finishes their work, they can release their lockout without making it unsafe for the other crew.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Exactly this. Everyone working on that machine slaps their lock on it, and every last lock needs to be removed before the tag can come off. The welders might finish in half a day, but the electrical or water or hydraulic guys might need a whole weekend to get done, so this makes sure someone doesn't say "oh the lock is gone" and make mincemeat out of some dude's head.

Just one padlock is enough, but you can use up to 6.

You need all the locks removed before it'll open, so you don't need to count on someone to carefully count everyone back in. You just make sure that each person uses their own lock

that looks like a flogger ngl

Is there a charge for "attempted negligent homicide" or something? You did something so catastrophically stupid that was all but guaranteed to kill someone except you got lucky, but you still should end up getting censured so you don't roll the dice on someone's life again

Can you perhaps relate that information in a format that doesn't involve me watching a video?

Hey at first it said "only hit this button if you really hate Phil, it will kill him." but they thought better and changed it.

[–] [email protected] 57 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Reminds me of an story I heard once. Guy working on a job locks and tags out a circuit so he can work on it. Guy goes up on a ladder to do the work.

Coworker comes along and sees circuit left locked; he decides he needs to activate the circuit. Coworker uses bolt cutters to remove the lock and flips on the circuit.

Guy on ladder gets literally knocked off the ladder, falls 10-20 feet onto grass. Guy is rushed to the ER.

Boss investigates, gives coworker two options: either he can quit immediately, or he can keep working and personally explain himself to guy in a month when he gets out of the hospital.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I remember reading something similar, with someone responding that they were always two people for these tasks. One doing the job and one guarding the circuit, making sure this does not happen.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

This is why you need 2 people to reactivate the circuit, one with the boltcutters, the other to fight the guard.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Option three - lock tag and then send coworker up, leaving original guy behind at the circuit with the bolt cutters to do as he sees fit.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 year ago

I worked briefly at a store where the Store Director was clearly still traumatized about an employee death years prior. Didn't press for details, but it was preventable and they were hyper-vigilant about safety precautions.

The world would be better without Captain Bolt Cutter and their kind spreading misery with their weaponized stupidity.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Where I live, for that kind of incident the employer would be obligated (as in, $50k worth of fines and likely criminal charges if you don't) to report it to an independent investigator to determine who was at fault; the person cut the lock would be liable for a fine, and the employer would have to prove that they adequately trained the employee before allowing them to work in a high risk area, or the health and safety officer and company directors could be found criminally liable

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

In my area, there's a decent chance the guy with the bolt cutters could be criminally liable, if he was adequately trained. That could easily be negligent homicide.

You do not cut locks. If your boss asks you to cut a lock, report them so they get immediately fired. We don't fuck around with LOTO.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Now I understand why you need 20+ supervision and management staff for 2 ppl doing actual work.

Y'all got any of them lockout/tagouts?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We have lockout/tagout at home

Lockout/tagout at home

[–] [email protected] 122 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lockouts SMH. Back in my day, we just died. And we were happy to work on energized systems for a bee (which was the style at the time).

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 year ago

You got paid? We used to have to pay for the privilege of being crushed to death at work.

[–] [email protected] 48 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lockout? Never heard of him

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

“I thought they said lookout. Like look out for the sign. Geez.”

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You could press it but don't
