General-duty citation text

29 CFR 1910.147(d): 29 CFR 1910.147(d): The established procedure for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) covered the following elements, however, the actions were not done in sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.147 (d)(1)-(6):  a) Production Area - On or about July 19, 2018, an employee was exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts while aligning the piece of roll fed material from the Sesco Feeder, model #12-1015, serial #19871.  The employer failed to implement energy control application steps as the machine was not shut down or turned off to perform the servicing work [per the 1910.147(d)(2) requirements].  As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [(d)(3)], LOTO device application [(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [(d)(5)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect the employee from machine servicing hazards.
