1Slide 35: closing, sign-in sheet and handouts

What you need

  • Slides on a screen, or printed copies for each person
  • Sign-in sheet
  • 10-question quiz and answer key, one quiz per person
  • Crew handouts and certificates
  • A lockout lock and tag like the ones used on site
  • A breaker lockout, a valve lockout and a group lockbox or hasp, if your site uses them
  • The written energy control procedure for one machine in your area
  • Flip chart or whiteboard and markers, if you have them

Tips from the guide

  • Use a real machine from your area for every example, and point out its isolating devices if you can see them from where you meet.
  • Pass the lock, tag and lockout devices around so everyone handles them.
  • When someone shares a close call, thank them and ask what would have prevented it. Do not blame.
