Compare The Safety Factory's safety tags for lockout/tagout warnings, maintenance instructions, equipment status and other workplace messages. Select the material, legend and attachment for the intended task.
Hundreds of stock legends are available, and custom tag designs can be requested. Select the legend, material and attachment for the intended task and workplace conditions. For accident-prevention tags, see the applicable criteria in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.145(f).
Some of our most popular Safety Tags are as follows:
- Do Not Operate Tags: These tags are required for many Lockout/Tagout applications.
- Operational Tags: These tags explicitly caution, advise, and instruct your employees on various operational procedures and policies.
- Maintenance Tags: Indicate that a machine or area is under repair and should not be used.
- Hazard Material Tags: Warn employees of the presence of hazardous or corrosive materials and remind them to take proper precautions.
- Fire Prevention Tags: Warn employees to use extra care when flammable materials or other fire hazards are present.
- All-Purpose Safety Tags: These include Inspection, Warning, Caution, and other general safety tags.
Select lockout/tagout devices under the employer's energy-control procedures. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147(c)(5) addresses durability, standardization, substantial construction and employee identification. The 50-pound minimum in paragraph (c)(5)(ii)(C)(2) applies to tagout attachments, not a universal tag-body rating. A tag is a warning device and does not provide the physical restraint of a lock.
