Introduction to LOTO

Introduction

Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) is used to secure a safe work environment before executing maintenance work orders. It ensures that equipment is isolated and cannot be operated while maintenance activities are being performed, reducing the risk of injury.

The LOTO process is supported within asset management and mobile applications. This enables organizations to plan, apply, verify, and remove isolations in a controlled manner as part of maintenance execution.

As a maintenance worker using the LOTO module, you can:

• Create LOTO records.
• View LOTO details.
• Add references and plan lines.
• Define setup and removal steps for plan lines.
• Review references and plans.
• Secure LOTO and verify setup steps.
• Remove LOTO and verify removal steps.
• View and download LOTO lists.
• View and download LOTO reports.

Note: Some of the functions mentioned above require certain module configurations. Keep on reading the sections below to get more information on how to work with the different functions.
