LOTO Accident Data from OSHA’s Preamble

Some interesting, yet very DATED data, regarding LOTO accidents.  This was from OSHA’s preamble when they tried to justify the need for the Control of Hazardous Energy Standard.  TABLE III – ACTIVITY OF TIME OF ACCIDENT and TABLE IV – CIRCUMSTANCES OF INJURIES are VERY TELLING and still reflect the LOTO accidents we see today.  So even though OSHA’s LOTO Standard came into effect in 1989, we still see too many injuries related to LOTO.
