Safe lock-off January 1st 2004 Production and maintenance staff at British Gypsum-Isover now have a personal padlock from Castell Iso-Lok engraved with their name, and an attached danger board with their name and photograph.
These are used to lock-off and isolate machinery safely and visibly during cleaning and maintenance.
Danger boards with photos warn personnel that a machine is locked off for maintenance or cleaning and enable simple identification of who is working on plant or machinery.
If more than one person is working on the equipment, a Multi-Clasp is attached to the relevant anchor point and each operative inserts their own padlock into the clasp. Access can only be restored once all padlocks are removed. More articles from Castell Safety International Ltd: |
