Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(d): The established procedure for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) did not cover the following elements and actions and were not done in sequence: Employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with the uncontrolled electrical energy when employees were engaged in service and maintenance activities on the Daniels Food Equipment, 20-56 Mixer Grinder. The employer failed to implement energy control application steps and ensure each authorized employee had the knowledge of the type, magnitude, the hazards, and the method or means to control energy prior to performing service work [per the 1910.147(d)(1)]. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving equipment shutdown [(d)(2)], 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 service hazards.
