Reasonable certainty an immediate danger exists
2nd
Fatality/Catastrophe:
Reported to OSHA; inspected ASAP
3rd
Complaints/Referrals:
Worker or worker representative can file a complaint
about a safety or health hazard
4th
Programmed Inspections:
Cover industries and employers with high injury and
illness rates, specific hazards, or other exposures.
Citations and Penalties

OSHA may propose penalties of up to
$70,000 for each willful violation, with
a minimum penalty of $5,000 for each
willful violation.
SERIOUS

knew, or should have known, of the hazard.
There is a mandatory penalty for
serious violations which may be up to
$7,000.
OTHER-THAN-SERIOUS
A violation that has a direct relationship to safety and health,
but probably would not cause death or serious physical
harm.
OSHA may propose a penalty of up to
$7,000 for each other-than-serious
