Credential Tracking

Lockout/Tagout Authorized Employee Tracking

Track which employees are trained and authorized to perform lockout/tagout procedures.

The problem

Why this gets hard to manage manually

OSHA's control of hazardous energy standard requires authorized employees to be trained on lockout/tagout procedures for the specific equipment they service. ComplyNestly tracks who's authorized and keeps that record current.

LOTO authorization is often equipment- and facility-specific, which means a simple "trained: yes/no" flag misses the real question — trained on WHICH equipment, at WHICH facility — and that gap is exactly where audits find problems.

Who this is for
  • Manufacturing, industrial maintenance, and facilities companies
  • Safety managers responsible for authorized-employee records
  • Companies serving client facilities that require proof of current training

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does LOTO training expire?

OSHA requires periodic inspection of energy control procedures (at least annually) and retraining when there's reason to believe an employee's knowledge is deficient — not a fixed individual expiration date. Many employers still set their own refresher cadence, which ComplyNestly can track.

Is LOTO authorization the same across all equipment?

No — authorization is typically specific to the equipment and procedures an employee is trained on. ComplyNestly lets you record that scope alongside the training date.

Is there a free way to try this?

Yes. The Free plan supports up to 5 employees and 1 location, no credit card required.

Sources & regulatory notes

Where this information comes from

OSHA's Control of Hazardous Energy standard (29 CFR 1910.147) requires authorized-employee training and periodic procedure review but does not set a universal individual expiration date. ComplyNestly tracks training records and any cadence you set; it does not determine site-specific authorization or compliance.

ComplyNestly helps you organize records and stay ahead of renewal dates — it does not verify licenses, provide legal advice, or guarantee compliance. Requirements vary by state, jurisdiction, and employer policy; confirm current requirements with the issuing authority.
