Breakdown by classification
5violations total
Willful120%

A Willful violation is one OSHA determined the employer committed with intentional disregard for, or plain indifference to, the OSH Act. It carries the highest civil penalty — up to ~$165,000 per violation. Willful violations are rare and signal the most serious workplace safety failures.

Repeat240%

A Repeat violation means OSHA cited the employer for a substantially similar violation within the past 5 years. Penalties multiply (up to ~$165,000 per repeat citation) and indicate the employer failed to permanently abate a recurring hazard.

Other-than-serious240%

An Other-than-serious violation has a direct relationship to job safety and health but probably would not cause death or serious physical harm. Maximum penalty is ~$16,550 per violation. Often involves recordkeeping or procedural lapses.

About OSHA inspections

The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) conducts inspections under several triggers: programmed targeting of high-hazard industries, employee complaints, workplace accidents, fatalities, and follow-ups to prior citations.

📋
Citations

Each citation specifies a section of 29 CFR, a severity tier, and a proposed penalty. Employers can contest citations through OSHA’s informal conference or before the OSH Review Commission.

Open vs closed

An open case has not yet been administratively closed — citations may follow or the case may close without action.

💰
Current vs initial penalty

Initial penalty is the proposed amount at citation. Current penalty is the post-conference / settlement figure on file today.

🔗
Trigger types

A = Accident, B = Complaint, H = Programmed, F = Follow-up. See the glossary for all codes.
