Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 004 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(c)(1):The employer did not establish a program consisting of an energy control procedure, employee training and periodic inspections to ensure that before any employee performed any servicing or maintenance on a machine or equipment where the unexpected energizing, startup or release of stored energy could occur and cause injury, the machine or equipment shall be isolated from the energy source and rendered inoperative: a) Godfrey and Wing Inc. located at 1400 N. Summit Street, Toledo, Ohio, 43604: On or about November 16, 2023, the employer failed to ensure an energy control program consisting of control procedures, employee training and periodic inspections were developed and performed. Employees tasked with performing service and maintenance tasks such as, but not limited to, troubleshooting, replacing sensors and water pumps on the CFI machine without the benefit of energy isolation, hazardous energy recognition training and employer evaluation, exposed employees to potential struck-by hazards created by the unexpected energization of the equipment.
