About This Data

OSHAlert publishes a weekly public snapshot of the U.S. Department of Labor's OSHA enforcement database. Paying customers get fresher data in the live dashboard, while these public research pages are refreshed on a weekly cadence.

OSHA conducts workplace inspections to enforce safety standards under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. Violations can be classified as Willful, Repeat, Serious, or Other-than-Serious, with penalties ranging from a few hundred dollars to over $150,000 per violation.

Safety consultants, training providers, and insurance brokers use OSHAlert to identify companies that have just received OSHA citations and may need immediate help with compliance, training, or updated insurance coverage.
