OSHA's Lockout/Tagout standards outline required measures for controlling hazardous ___ energies.

OSHA's Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) standards are designed to protect workers from the unexpected energization or startup of machinery and equipment during maintenance or servicing activities. To achieve this, the standards require specific measures to control hazardous energies that can pose a risk of injury.

The correct response is comprehensive because it encompasses all forms of hazardous energies, including kinetic, thermal, and electrical. Kinetic energy can arise from moving parts or stored energy in machines that could lead to injuries if not properly managed. Thermal energy can present hazards through heat or hot surfaces that can cause burns or thermal exposure. Electrical energy includes risks associated with electrical currents and equipment that can lead to shock or arc flash incidents.

The LOTO standards mandate that employers implement lockout/tagout procedures to ensure all of these potential hazards are properly controlled, providing a safe working environment for personnel involved in maintenance and servicing tasks. Therefore, recognizing that these standards address all of these energy types is crucial for adhering to safety regulations and protecting workers.
