The Occupational Safety and Health Administration, more commonly known by its acronym OSHA, is responsible for protecting worker health and safety in the United States. OSHA determines which standards and requirements apply to which workplace environments and then enforces employer adherence to those standards and requirements.
Lockout tagout complies with OSHA by standard Number 1910.147 --The control of hazardous energy.
This standard covers the servicing and maintenance of machines and equipment in which the unexpected energization or start up of the machines or equipment, or release of stored energy could cause injury to employees.
