Outside Contractors

The OSHA Lockout Tagout Standard requires the outside personnel/contractors be advised that the company has and enforces the use of lockout/tagout procedures.  These contractors are to be informed of the use of locks and tags and notified about the prohibition of attempts to restart or re-energize machines or equipment that are locked out or tagged out.

The company will obtain information from the outside personnel/contractor about their lockout/tagout procedures and advise affected employees of this information.

The outside personnel/contractor is required to sign a certification form stating that they have been informed of the policy and understand the policy requirements.  If an outside personnel/contractor has previously signed a certification that is on file, additional signed certification is not necessary.  A list of contractors that have been completed the certification is provided below:
