Lockout system cuts delays, gives added security
Lockout procedures provide workers in potentially hazardous environments with protection from accidents caused by inadvertent or unauthorized operation of machinery and equipment, or access to danger areas.
Kits include the operator’s photograph and phone number on all locks, tags and kit bags
According to Paul Taylor of Lockout Services, “Management of lockout tags and associated systems can be frustrating for both employers and staff. Workers often report difficulty in identification and location of tag owners on shift changes or where authorised access by others is required.
“From a management viewpoint, production losses from delays caused by trying to locate owners of locks or staff waiting for delivery of lock and tag kits can compound over a period and become a significant cost to the business”.
Taylor said their company has released its Lockout system that enables 24-hour response to orders for lockout kits that include the operator’s photograph and phone number on all locks, tags and kit bags.
Having complete contact details on all components mean lock owners can be found quickly. The integrated photo ID tag speeds the process.
Kits can be ordered on the internet at www.lockoutservices.com.au and delivered the next day.
There is also an iPhone application where users can simply call up the App, enter their image and details, and the kit is delivered the next day.
Lockout Services says its system can be supplied either as a full kit comprising locks, retractor clip, heavy duty tags, stainless steel hasp and a rugged belt bag, or tags and bags supplied separately.
