Objective:
This project documents and evaluates the effectiveness of existing shipyard hazardous energy control programs and describes the fundamental elements of an effective program. The effort involved the documentation of current practices through the development of a matrix of current hazardous energy control program elements used in the seven participating shipyards. Information from a wider sector of the shipbuilding industry was obtained where possible through interfaces with various labor and trade associations. Each element in the matrix was evaluated based on its importance in preventing hazardous energy control-related failures.
