Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 004B 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): a) The employer fails to ensure effective measures to prevent struck-by, caught-in, and thermal burn hazards as demonstrated on or about May 6, 2024 to May 16, 2024, at APEX 1, 2, 3, and 4 machines, where an employee engages in maintenance activities such as, but not limited to, maintenance, troubleshooting and clearing jams. To abate this hazard, the employer must ensure that the employees have knowledge of the magnitude of the energy sources and APEX 1,2 3, and 4 machines are shut down or turned off properly and the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [(d)(3)], LOTO device application [(d)(4)], stored energy [(d)(5), if applicable], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)] are implemented.
