A construction company that specializes in the demolition of high-rise buildings was cited, in 2010, for several serious OSHA violations, including failure to conduct a complete engineering survey prior to demolition, failure to create an adequate fire prevention and evacuation plan, and failure to provide workers with adequate training. In 2014, the same company was cited for violations at a different work site, including many of the same violations by the company and the construction manager for which it had previously been penalized.

History Increase
An employer that has been cited by OSHA for any high gravity serious, willful, repeat or failure-to-abate violation within the previous five years will receive a 10% increase in their penalty, up to the statutory maximum.
Employers who have not been inspected and employers who have received citations for serious violations that were not high gravity will receive neither a reduction, nor an increase based on their OSHA inspection history.
Repeat Violations
The time period to consider for repeated violations has increased from three years to five years. Area Directors may continue to apply a size reduction to the penalty, as appropriate, after considering the need for a deterrent effect.
