Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(d):Application of control. The established procedures for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) shall cover the following elements and actions and shall be done in accordance with the (d)(1) through (d)(6): On or about October 6, 2024, employees were exposed to a cutter inside the Glass Automatic Double-Edge Sealing Machine while performing maintenance and servicing activities such as but not limited to changing the tape rolls. The employer failed to implement energy control application steps as the machine was not shut down or turned off to perform the servicing work [per the 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)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards.
