The Occupational Safety and Health Administration said it is slightly raising civil penalty amount for 2024, effective Jan. 16.
The Department of Labor’s OSHA said maximum penalties for serious and other-than-serious violations will increase from $15,625 per violation to $16,131 per violation. The maximum penalty for willful or repeated violations will increase from $156,259 per violation to $161,323 per violation.
These fines can extend to labor law poster violations.
The penalties are being adjusted under the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements Act passed in 2015 that requires agencies to publish “catch-up” rules that adjust the level of civil monetary penalties and make subsequent annual adjustments for inflation.
