The placement of a lockout tagout station can either be in a central location or a spot right next to a machine or near its power source. LOTO stations have to have strategic locations because even just the placement of the stations can have an impact on the way that LOTO procedures are carried out.
Because LOTO stations contain important locks and devices such as padlocks and hasps, they’ll be able to help streamline the execution of LOTO procedures. Employees will be able to implement procedures right away and are far less likely to overlook or forget anything if the devices they need can consistently be found in one specific place.
