Employees taking the VR Lockout / Tagout training will learn how to select the correct Lockout devices, isolate dangerous energy sources to critical equipment, notify personnel, disconnect energy sources while verifying Lockout / Tagout is in place, and lastly renotify personnel before bringing equipment back online. Employees will learn to:
- Choose and inspect equipment – select tools that are in good working condition and appropriate for the task.
- Identify equipment needing LOTO – recognize which equipment requires Lockout Tagout procedures.
- Properly communicate – when to send notifications to other workers through the LOTO process.
- Apply Lockout Tagout – execute the proper steps at the circuit board to apply and remove Lockout Tagout
- Repair equipment – follow the safety procedures to repair equipment without incident
The VR Experience
This VR training course has a tutorial, which takes the user through a non-graded lesson, and a scenario that is meant to be a graded assessment. The tutorial guides the user through selecting appropriate equipment such as a wrench and a radio, identifying equipment that requires Lockout / Tagout, sending notifications to other workers via the radio, executing a simple repair, and executing Lockout / Tagout. The assessment scenario grades the actions taught in the tutorial for servicing a hydraulic pump. Upon completion of the assessment, the user will receive their performance scores for safely performing Lockout / Tagout.
