Which of the following is not a typical focus of the lockout/tagout program?

  1. Preventing accidental start-up of machinery

  2. Ensuring proper handling of dangerous chemicals

  3. Maintaining a safe environment during maintenance work

  4. Extinguishing small fires before they spread

The correct answer is: Extinguishing small fires before they spread

The focus of a lockout/tagout program is primarily aimed at ensuring the safety of employees during maintenance and servicing of machinery and equipment. This includes preventing accidental start-up of machinery, maintaining a safe environment during maintenance work, and addressing issues related to hazardous conditions during such operations. While extinguishing small fires is an important safety concern, it is not a direct focus of the lockout/tagout program. Instead, the program specifically concentrates on controlling hazardous energy sources to avoid accidents and injuries during maintenance tasks. Fire safety measures would typically fall under different protocols and training related to emergency response or general workplace safety, rather than the lockout/tagout program itself.
