OSHA 1910.147 — The Control of Hazardous Energy — is the U.S. standard governing lockout/tagout. Horus turns the standard into a system-enforced workflow and generates the documentation inspectors ask for, so compliance becomes a by-product of normal operation.
The standard requires a documented energy control program: written LOTO procedures per machine, authorized-employee training, periodic (at least annual) inspections, and a defined sequence of shutdown, isolation, lockout/tagout, stored-energy release and verification.
Horus blocks maintenance until each required step is completed in order: energy source identification, isolation device assignment, de-energization verification and re-energization authorization. No step can be skipped or back-dated.
Every action is timestamped and logged automatically, producing the audit evidence OSHA expects. When an inspector or internal auditor asks, the record is one query away — not a week of paperwork.
Horus tracks training, qualifications and the annual periodic inspections the standard mandates, giving EHS leaders a live compliance dashboard across every machine and site.
