Choosing the Correct Form
The LOCKOUT-PRO
TM
application saves time and repetitive work otherwise involved in writing
procedures by providing three pre-designed forms (templates) for a variety of procedures. When
creating a new lockout/tagout procedure, your first step is to choose which of these forms to use:
• Long Form
• Short Form
• Combined Form
Long Form
The Long Form is the most flexible of the forms. It can include as many pages as needed to
accommodate the images and text required to document the lockout steps.
Short Form
The Short Form is the most compact and concise form. It is typically a single page, though it will
expand to as many pages as needed. You can insert up to two images in this form.
Choose a Long Form:
• If a procedure involves many energy sources and images, and requires detailed lockout
steps.
• To create a comprehensive document with all of the information required for a particular
lockout/tagout procedure.
• If you want a single, complete procedure to use as a backup reference for shorter
procedures that describe sub-steps of the overall procedure.
Choose a Short Form:
• To document a short procedure that requires only one or two images for clarity.
• To summarize the key steps of a longer procedure for posting as a quick reference near
the lockout site.
• To create separate documents for each segment of a longer procedure that you can
post separately at the lockout location.
