What is one of the consequences of not adhering to OSHA provisions?

Not adhering to OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) provisions can lead to potential legal repercussions for the employer. OSHA regulations are designed to ensure workplace safety and health standards are met. If an employer fails to comply with these standards, they may face various consequences, including fines, penalties, or even legal action. This not only affects the financial aspect of the business but can also lead to lawsuits from employees who may be harmed due to unsafe working conditions. Therefore, understanding and following OSHA guidelines is critically important for employers to minimize their liability and protect both their workforce and their business interests.
