High-risk operations: Lockout/tagout
Lockout/tagout is an internationally recognized high-risk operation management method. By physically isolating energy sources and hanging warning signs, it ensures that equipment remains in a safe state during maintenance, cleaning or debugging, avoiding accidental startup that could cause personal injury. The water plant attaches great importance to this pilot work. It has established a special task force, with the person in charge of the plant area taking overall planning and the participation of key personnel related to safety, equipment, and production. After in-depth research on the safety management systems of international enterprises such as Veolia, Core documents such as the "Lockout/tagout Management System" and the "Lockout/tagout License Approval Process" that are in line with the actual situation of the water plant have been formulated.
Veolia has a mature system and rich practical experience in energy isolation management. When formulating the process, we mainly referred to their standardized operation and risk control methods. The special task force for water plant signage and locking concluded. The team also compiled supporting documents such as the "Locking Point Statistics Table" and the "Operation Process Diagram" for different types of equipment to ensure that each step of the operation is clear and definite, reducing the risk of execution deviation.
