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 the following sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.146(d)(1)-(6): On or about March 28, 2023, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts during servicing of the Savo Plus M2.0 potting machine. The employer failed to implement energy control application steps as LOTO devices were not applied to the electrical disconnect [per the 1910.147(d)(4) requirements]. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements involving verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards.
