Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001B 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 sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.147(d)(1)-(6): Abbyland Foods, Inc. facility located at 502 E. Linden St. Abbotsford, WI: On and about May 6, 2017, the employer did not ensure employees utilized energy control application steps prior to them engaging in jam clearing or adjustment activities on the B.W. Cooney STN8500WER tray wrapping machines. The machine was not deenergized prior to the employee's engaging in the servicing/maintenance activity, nor were alternative protective measures implemented that provided effective protection in that the interlocked guard was not control reliable. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine shutdown [1910.147(d)(2)], 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 servicing hazards.
