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

Lockout/tagout at home

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

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.

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.

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.

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

Heh yeah that’s good

absolutely. I'd almost want to disassemble something like this before cleaning it properly.

That or have a very explicit physical lock out mechanism if it's something like a stamping press.

That too, but Jesus, how dense do you have to be to not even turn the machine off?

And if there're multiple people involved each one should have their own pad lock placed on the controls.

Ok, I'll give them that, but there are still so many things that can be done to stop someone from activating the machine other than a note, like a button lockout device.

There is always a way to disable a machine. The button has power. At the very least, the power to that button should be locked out. If it has to happen at the breaker, so be it.

Breaker feeding the thing power.

If a tool or machine can simply be unplugged, and the worker performing the service remains in control of the plug, then lockout procedures aren’t necessary.

I flogged ur mum

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

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.

You meant YYYY-MM-DD

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