Previous protocols permitted only one Authorised Technical Officer (“ATO”) to activate LOTO on the mobile column lifts' power switch. This posed miscommunication and safety concerns when several ATOs collaborated on a single bus.
The team instituted a shackle system, permitting multiple ATOs to initiate LOTO when servicing the same bus, all under the vigilant supervision of the Team In-Charge (“IC”).
The newly implemented system has improved communication between team members and bolstered safety measures for multiple ATOs operating on the same bus.
