OSHA opens inspections for many reasons — routine scheduling under a national or local emphasis program, an employee complaint or referral, or a follow-up after a reported injury. Opening or conducting an inspection is not itself an allegation or a finding that this employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

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: On or about May 20, 2019 an employee was exposed to machine hazards associated with shear hazards when they were engaged in servicing and maintenance activities on the air conveyance system, including the star valve. The employer did not ensure that energy control application steps to control electrical and/or gas energy sources were implemented prior to allowing employees to clear product jams on the star valve.
