Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 006A 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): On or about the week of November 11, 2019, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts when they engaged in die changing activities on the Niagara press. The employer did not ensure that employees implemented energy control application steps prior to allowing them to change dies. The machine was not deenergized prior to the employee engaging in the servicing / maintenance activity. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [1910.147(d)(3)], lockout/tagout device application [1910.147(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [1910(d)(5)(i)], and verification of isolation [1910.147(d)(6)] were not implemented to protect employees from machine hazards.
