Switzerland has established legal provisions governing the Lockout-Tagout procedure (LOTO):
Ordinance to the Labor Act (ArGV 3): This ordinance sets forth comprehensive guidelines for occupational health and safety. It mandates that employers are responsible for ensuring the safety and well-being of their employees. Under the ArGV framework, employers are obligated to implement suitable safety measures to prevent workplace accidents and protect employees' health.

Low Voltage Installation Standard (NIN): Recognized as a pivotal technical standard within the electrical installation sector in Switzerland, the NIN establishes crucial safety protocols and requirements. It plays a significant role in ensuring the safe operation of electrical systems and installations across the country.

In the EU guidelines 89/655 stipulate the basic requirements on employee health and safety when handling industrial equipment. Additionally EN 1037 dwells on procedures to deal with energy isolation and dissipation to prevent hazardous equipment from being re-energised, and safely clear a risk-prone area for use.

LOTO padlocks are an inexpensive but fundamental part of any LOTO procedure and strategy. LOTO Padlocks cost is generally dependant on the type of material used, size of the lock, and other features such as water and dustproofing.
