Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 005 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 1910.147 (d)(1) through (d)(6). a. On or before September 26, 2019, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts during activities such as but not limited to, preventative maintenance on the press lines. The employer failed to implement energy control application steps as energy isolation devices were not operated to control all energy for the press lines, a selector switch was used. [per the 1910.147(d)(3) requirements]. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving 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.
