It has come to your attention that maintenance workers have not been following the Lockout/Tagout procedures to control the unexpected release of electricity when working on equipment. Discussion with the workers and their supervisors has revealed that they do not follow the procedures because there have not been any incidents in the past several years. They claim that following the procedures slows down the maintenance process.
Applying the principles of the psychometric paradigm, discuss what actions you could take to change the maintenance workers’ risk perceptions from low to high.
