Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(d): The established procedures 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) through (d)(6): a. On or about October 18, 2021, located in the Cut Shop, an employee was exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts and in-going nip points while unjamming boards in the Timberland stacker machine. The employer did not implement energy control application steps as the machine was not shut down and turned off to perform the 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)] and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect the employee from machine servicing hazards.
