| 95-hr-13296 | 95 | hr | 13296 | A bill to amend the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 to exempt employers of ten or fewer regular employees, to require the issuance of warnings to employers of twenty-five or fewer regular employees for the first instance violations, and bar the assessment of penalties where fewer than ten violations are cited. | Labor and Employment | 1978-06-26 | 1978-06-26 | Referred to House Committee on Education and Labor. | House | Rep. Skubitz, Joe [R-KS-5] | KS | R | S000472 | 1 | Amends the Occupational Safety and Health Act to exclude from coverage (1) employers with ten or fewer employees; and (2) employees not employed on a regular basis for 30 or more consecutive days. Requires that a warning rather than a citation be given for a first instance violation, other than a willful or serious violation, to an employer who has not employed more than 25 employees at any time during the 30 days prior to an inspection or investigation. Prohibits the imposition of a civil penalty against an employer for a nonserious violation if (1) such employer has not previously received a citation for the same violation; and (2) the inspection upon which such citation was based resulted in the issuance of citations for ten or or fewer violations of a nonserious nature. | 2025-07-21T19:44:15Z |
