Who Should Take the Course?
Employers should train ALL workers in the basic concepts of hazardous energy control, including energy
isolation, locking and tagging of control devices, verifying de-energization, and clearing danger points
before re-energizing equipment. Workers whose duties involve installation, maintenance, service, or
repair work should be trained in the detailed control procedures required for their particular equipment.
This training should enable workers to identify tasks that might expose them to hazardous energy and the
effective methods for its control.
