Caution - This Equipment Has Been Locked Out - Self Standing Floor Sign - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

Warn personnel that machinery, equipment, or electrical systems have been intentionally locked out for maintenance, servicing, or safety reasons. Lockout procedures prevent accidental start-up or operation of equipment while work is being performed, reducing the risk of serious injury, electric shock, or mechanical hazards. The sign serves as a clear visual alert that the equipment is not to be used until the lockout has been removed by authorised personnel.

This sign should be placed directly on the floor near the locked-out equipment, in areas where employees, contractors, or visitors could approach and potentially attempt to operate the machinery. Typical locations include manufacturing plants, workshops, warehouses, laboratories, maintenance areas, and construction sites. Its self-standing design allows flexible placement and easy visibility in high-traffic or complex work areas, and the bright yellow colour ensures it attracts attention.

Using a Caution - This Equipment Has Been Locked Out sign enhances workplace safety by clearly communicating lockout procedures and preventing unauthorised operation. It reinforces adherence to health and safety regulations, supports safe maintenance practices, and reminds personnel of the hazards associated with operating locked-out machinery.

Ultimately, this sign protects workers and visitors from injury, ensures compliance with lockout/tagout safety protocols, and fosters a culture of safety and accountability. By providing a clear, visible warning, it minimises the risk of accidents in environments where machinery or equipment is temporarily disabled for safety or maintenance purposes.
