Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(d): The established procedure for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) did not cover the actions listed in and was not done in sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.147(d)(1)-(6): Century Casting Corporation located at 1300 North Illinois Street in Belleville, IL 62220: On or about 2 September 2022, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts creating physical hazards during servicing and cleaning under the mold lifter - push out unit of the of the Roberts Sinto Corporation FBO-II Molding Machine - serial number FMM-0106-00. 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)(i)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards.
