Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

OSHA will typically give the company a time frame to correct the violations found during the inspection. The company may also be required to submit a correction plan and provide proof of corrective actions taken. Employee interviews and a walkaround tour may be conducted during the inspection, but are not the next steps after discussing violations with management. Fines are typically imposed after a company fails to correct identified violations within the allotted time frame. Asking employees to notify management of future inspections is not a typical response by the company or OSHA.
