The MBAA Brewery Engineering & Utilities Course, conducted in 2016, featured a presentation by Mark Jaeggi focusing on essential safety protocols in breweries, particularly Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) procedures. Jaeggi emphasized the significance of a written LOTO program, employee training, and the establishment of a 'zero energy state' before maintenance tasks to prevent workplace injuries. The presentation also covered the importance of tagging equipment and the need for substantial tagout devices to ensure safety during maintenance operations and confined space entries.
