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 procedure) was not done in sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.147(d)(1) through (d)(6): On or about August 11, 2023, the employer did not ensure that Sanitation employees implemented energy control application steps prior to allowing them to engage in servicing and maintenance activities on while performing the "Dry Cleaning" in the "Secondary" production rooms exposing them to pinch/nip point hazards and amputation injuries. As a result, the following steps were not implemented in order involving machine isolation [1910.147(d)(3)], lockout/tagout device application [1910.147(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [1910.147(d)(5)(i)], and verification of isolation [1910.147(d)(6)] were not implemented to protect employees from machine hazards.
