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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

General-duty citation text
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). a. On or about September 23, 2024, in packaging area, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with reenergization of equipment during service and/or maintenance, to include clearing jams, on the RapidPak Packaging Machine, Model RP-55, Serial #955832. 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)((i)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards. b. On or about September 23, 2024, in packaging area, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with reenergization of equipment during service and/or maintenance, to include clearing jams, on the Ross Preformed Tray Packaging Machine, Model IN850, Serial #109. 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].
