    isnt the LOTO procedure to ask the person listed on the tag whats wrong with it before actually trying to use it. Boss ego crazy to completely just ignore the tag without understanding why it was on there in the first place.

      Oh yeah. If he wasn’t the guy with the hiring and firing job he would have been walked off that day. He’s easily the worst boss I ever had. Started planning my escape after that. The company had a real problem with sunk cost fallacy. ‘‘Well we invested so much in him’’ was the adittude.

      At my place of work, we have a switch that has been locked out for over a decade. The dude doesn’t even work there anymore. Perhaps isn’t alive. It isn’t critical, but our LOTO trainings don’t cover that possibility.

        That’s actually exactly how it should work. The switch isn’t necessary, or someone would have called in an expert to fix it, so it hasn’t been fixed and remains locked.
