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 February 26, 2020, employees were exposed to machine hazards and moving parts while they cleared jams in the tapper machines, and the employer failed to implement energy control application steps as the machine was not shut down or turned off to perform this work. 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 employees from these machine servicing hazards.
