Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:

29 CFR 1910.147(d):The established procedure for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) was not done in sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.147(d)(1)-(6): On or about December 6, 2021, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts during servicing of the Cardboard Compactor RJ 225. The employee failed to implement energy control applications steps as the machine was not shut down or turned off to perform servicing work (per 1910.147(d)(2) requirements. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [(d)(3)], LOTO device application [(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [(d)(5)(i)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards.
