Methodology
How to read this record
An OSHA inspection record describes federal enforcement activity — it does not capture every workplace safety event at a company. A few caveats:
5-year window
OSHA Violations Tracker indexes inspections opened on or after 2021-01-01. Older history is at OSHA’s establishment search.
Establishment vs. company
OSHA records are keyed by physical establishment, not parent company. A large employer may operate many sites across states.
Inspection without citation is normal
Many inspections close with no violations — that’s a positive signal, not a missing data row.
Penalties are current assessment
Final amounts may differ after informal conferences or settlement. We show what OSHA has on file today.
Full methodology, scoring details, and known limitations: /methodology.
Frequently asked questions about United Parcel Service, Inc.
United Parcel Service, Inc. earned a F safety grade (49/100) — poor record. The grade reflects severity of past citations, accident history, and how recent the most-recent inspection is. See the methodology for the full scoring algorithm.
