Control of Hazardous Energy

Approximately 3 million workers service equipment and face the greatest risk of injury if lockout/tagout is not properly implemented. Compliance with lockout/tagout standard 29 CFR 1910.147 prevents an estimated 120 fatalities and 50,000 injuries each year. Grainger can help you keep workers safe from unexpected energies, or start up of machinery or equipment by helping you lockout hazards.

Employee exposure to unguarded or inadequately guarded machines is prevalent in many workplaces. Grainger has the essential safeguards you need to help protect your workers from these preventable injuries.
