OSHA history (public record)
Your establishment's federal OSHA inspection and citation history from DOL's public enforcement data — match your site once, and the history follows it.
This page shows your establishment's federal inspection and citation history straight from the
Department of Labor's public enforcement data (refreshed daily upstream). It's the outside-in view
of your compliance record — useful alongside your own incidents and
recordkeeping logs. It needs the DOL API key configured (DolApi:Key);
the page tells you if it isn't.
Match your site once
OSHA's data has no establishment ID, so the first time:
- Go to OSHA history and pick the Site.
- Enter the Establishment name as OSHA might have recorded it, and the two-letter State, then click Search.
- Review the candidates — grouped by name and address, with inspection counts and the last inspection date — and click This is us on yours.
The match is saved to the site, and the history follows it from then on — no re-searching. If nothing comes back, try a shorter name fragment or a different spelling.
Read the history
Once matched, the page shows:
- Summary cards: inspections on record, citations across the most recent inspections, current penalties (recent), and the date the last inspection opened.
- One card per inspection (the most recent 25) with its date, location, inspection type/scope, and each citation: the standard cited, the citation type (serious, willful, repeat, other-than-serious), issue date, current penalty, and whether it's contested. Citation detail is loaded for the most recent inspections only.
If the match is wrong
Franchises and similarly named companies can collide in OSHA's records. If the matched history turns out to belong to someone else, click change next to the matched name and re-run the search to pick the right establishment.
What happens automatically
- Opening the page for a matched site loads its current history — the source is the DOL Open Data Portal (public domain, refreshed daily upstream), so new inspections and citation updates appear without any action on your side.
Note: this is OSHA's record of you, not your record of yourself. Your own injury/illness logs live in recordkeeping; industry-level comparison rates are under industry injuries.
