Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 006 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(c)(7)(i): The employer shall provide training to ensure that the purpose and function of the energy control program are understood by employees and that the knowledge and skills required for the safe application, usage, and removal of the energy controls are acquired by employees: a. On or about 08 February 2017, the employer failed to effectively train employees to identify each potential energy source and isolate those sources during servicing and maintenance operations on equipment, including conveyors, and compactors/balers. Employee(s) were exposed to a caught-in hazard. b. On or about 26 April 2017, the employer removed a personal lockout device from the plastic compactor near door #10 without first taking the required safety steps to ensure the safety of the authorized person. This exposed employees to amputation and/or crushing injuries from unexpected start-up of the compactor. Abatement documentation is required for this item in accordance with 29 CFR 1903.19(d).
