Isikhokelo Esipheleleyo Sokhuseleko Lokukhiya I-Tagout (LOTO)

1. Intshayelelo kwi-Lockout/Tagout (LOTO)
Inkcazo ye-Lockout/Tagout (LOTO)
Ukutshixa/Ukutsalela (iLOTO) kubhekisa kwinkqubo yokhuseleko esetyenziswa kwiindawo zokusebenza ukuqinisekisa ukuba oomatshini nezixhobo zivaliwe ngokufanelekileyo kwaye azikwazi ukuqaliswa kwakhona ngaphambi kokuba kugqitywe ukulungiswa okanye ukulungiswa. Oku kubandakanya ukwahlula imithombo yamandla yezixhobo kunye nokusebenzisa izitshixo (ukutshixa) kunye neethegi (ukutsalela) ukuthintela ukuphinda kusebenze ngengozi. Le nkqubo ikhusela abasebenzi ekukhutshweni kwamandla ayingozi ngokungalindelekanga, okunokukhokelela ekwenzakaleni okukhulu okanye ekufeni.

Ukubaluleka kweLOTO kuKhuseleko lweNdawo yoMsebenzi
Ukuphumeza iinkqubo zeLOTO kubalulekile ekugcineni indawo yokusebenza ikhuselekile. Kunciphisa umngcipheko weengozi ngexesha lemisebenzi yokulungisa ngokuqinisekisa ukuba abasebenzi bakhuselekile kwimithombo yamandla eyingozi, njengombane, iikhemikhali, kunye namandla oomatshini. Ngokulandela imigaqo yeLOTO, imibutho inokunciphisa kakhulu amathuba okwenzakala, ngaloo ndlela iphucula ukhuseleko lwendawo yokusebenza ngokubanzi kwaye ikhuthaze inkcubeko yokhathalelo kunye noxanduva phakathi kwabasebenzi. Ukongeza, ukuthobela imigangatho yeLOTO kudla ngokumiselwa ziiarhente ezilawulayo ezifana ne-OSHA, nto leyo egxininisa ngakumbi ukubaluleka kwayo ekukhuseleni abasebenzi nasekugcineni ukuthotyelwa komthetho.

2. Iingcamango eziphambili zokuValelwa ngaphandle/ukuThengwa ngaphandle (iLOTO)
Umahluko Phakathi kweLockout kunye neTagout
Ukutshixa kunye nokutshixa ziinxalenye ezimbini ezahlukeneyo kodwa ezihambelanayo zokhuseleko lweLOTO. Ukutshixa kubandakanya ukubopha izixhobo zokwahlula amandla ngokoqobo ngeetshixa ukuthintela ukuba oomatshini bangavulwa. Oku kuthetha ukuba ngabasebenzi abagunyazisiweyo kuphela abanesitshixo okanye indibaniselwano abanokususa itshixa. Ukutshixa, kwelinye icala, kubandakanya ukubeka i-tag yesilumkiso kwisixhobo sokwahlula amandla. Le tag ibonisa ukuba izixhobo akufuneki zisetyenziswe kwaye inika ulwazi malunga nokuba ngubani owenze i-lockout kunye nesizathu. Nangona i-tagout isebenza njengesilumkiso, ayiboneleli ngomqobo ofanayo nowokutshixa.

Indima yeZixhobo zokuValela ngaphandle kunye neziXhobo zokuThengisa
Izixhobo zokutshixa zizixhobo ezibonakalayo, ezifana nee-padlocks kunye nee-hasps, ezikhusela izixhobo ezihlukanisa amandla kwindawo ekhuselekileyo, zithintela ukusebenza ngengozi. Zibalulekile ekuqinisekiseni ukuba oomatshini abanakuqaliswa kwakhona ngelixa kusenziwa ulondolozo. Izixhobo zokutshixa, ezibandakanya iithegi, iilebhile, kunye neempawu, zibonelela ngolwazi olubalulekileyo malunga nemeko yokutshixa kwaye zilumkisa abanye ekusebenziseni izixhobo. Zizonke, ezi zixhobo ziphucula ukhuseleko ngokubonelela ngemiqobo ebonakalayo neyolwazi ukuthintela ukusebenza koomatshini okungafunekiyo.

Isishwankathelo sezixhobo zokwahlula amandla
Izixhobo zokwahlula amandla zizinto ezilawula ukuhamba kwamandla ukuya koomatshini okanye kwizixhobo. Imizekelo eqhelekileyo ibandakanya ii-circuit breakers, ii-switches, ii-valve, kunye nee-disconnects. Ezi zixhobo zibalulekile kwinkqubo ye-LOTO, njengoko kufuneka zichongwe kwaye zilawulwe ngokufanelekileyo ukuqinisekisa ukuba yonke imithombo yamandla iyahlukaniswa ngaphambi kokuba kuqalwe ukulungiswa. Ukuqonda indlela yokusebenzisa nokukhusela ezi zixhobo ngokufanelekileyo kubalulekile kukhuseleko lwabasebenzi kunye nokuphunyezwa ngempumelelo kweenkqubo ze-LOTO.

3. Umgangatho we-OSHA Lockout/Tagout
1. Isishwankathelo seeMfuno ze-OSHA ze-LOTO
ULawulo loKhuseleko kunye neMpilo eMsebenzini (OSHA) luchaza iimfuno ezibalulekileyo zeLockout/Tagout (LOTO) phantsi komgangatho 29 CFR 1910.147. Lo mgangatho uyalela ukuba abaqeshi basebenzise inkqubo epheleleyo yeLOTO ukuqinisekisa ukhuseleko lwabasebenzi ngexesha lokugcinwa nokulungiswa koomatshini. Iimfuno eziphambili ziquka:

· Iinkqubo ezibhaliweyo: Abaqeshi kufuneka baphuhlise kwaye bagcine iinkqubo ezibhaliweyo zokulawula amandla anobungozi.

· Uqeqesho: Bonke abasebenzi abagunyazisiweyo nabachaphazelekayo kufuneka bafumane uqeqesho malunga neenkqubo zeLOTO, ukuqinisekisa ukuba bayayiqonda imingcipheko enxulumene namandla anobungozi kunye nokusetyenziswa ngokufanelekileyo kwezixhobo zokutshixa kunye nezixhobo zokuthena.

· Uhlolo lwamaxesha athile: Abaqeshi kufuneka bahlole rhoqo iinkqubo ze-LOTO ubuncinane minyaka le ukuqinisekisa ukuthotyelwa kwemithetho nokusebenza kwayo.

2. Izinto ezingaqhelekanga kwi-OSHA Standard
Nangona umgangatho we-OSHA LOTO usebenza ngokubanzi, kukho iimeko ezithile ezikhethekileyo:

· Utshintsho oluncinci lweZixhobo: Imisebenzi engabandakanyi ukukhululwa kwamandla anobungozi, njengotshintsho oluncinci lwezixhobo okanye uhlengahlengiso, isenokungadingi iinkqubo zeLOTO ezipheleleyo.

· Izixhobo zeNtambo kunye nePlug: Kwizixhobo eziqhagamshelwe ngentambo kunye neplagi, iLOTO ayinakusebenza ukuba iplagi ifikeleleka lula, kwaye abasebenzi abachanabekanga kwiingozi ngexesha lokusetyenziswa kwayo.

· Iimeko ezithile zomsebenzi: Imisebenzi ethile equka ukusetyenziswa kweendlela zokukhulula ngokukhawuleza okanye iinxalenye ezenzelwe ukusebenza ngaphandle kweLOTO nazo zingawela ngaphandle komgangatho, ukuba nje amanyathelo okhuseleko avavanywa ngokwaneleyo.

Abaqeshi kufuneka bahlolisise ngononophelo imeko nganye ukuze babone ukuba iinkqubo zeLOTO ziyimfuneko na.

3. Ukwaphulwa kwemithetho kunye nezohlwayo eziqhelekileyo
Ukungathobeli umgangatho we-OSHA LOTO kunokukhokelela kwimiphumo emibi kakhulu. Ukwaphulwa kwemithetho eqhelekileyo kuquka:

· Uqeqesho olunganelanga: Ukungakwazi ukuqeqesha ngokufanelekileyo
