The Data

Four federal datasets. One employer score.

OSHA and the Department of Labor publish enforcement data across four separate programs. None of them are joined at the employer level. WorkRecord ingests all four, links them by employer identity, and produces a single scored compliance record per employer.

The result: a complete safety, wage compliance, and injury record for every scored employer — refreshed quarterly from federal open data.

OSHA Inspections

Every federal OSHA inspection since 1970 — 5.16M records across all industries and jurisdictions. Includes inspection type, violation findings, fatality flags, and abatement status.

Federal

OSHA Violations

12.77M violation records — citation type (willful, repeat, serious, other), initial and final penalty, abatement date, and open abatement flags. $6.51B in current penalties tracked.

Federal

OSHA Severe Injury Reports

103,750 severe workplace injuries reported to OSHA since January 2015 — amputations, hospitalizations, and loss of an eye. A dataset separate from inspections that captures incidents not always resulting in a formal citation.

Federal

DOL Wage & Hour Division

365,393 WHD investigations covering $4.73B in documented back wages. Includes FLSA violation counts, civil money penalties, child labor flags, and repeat violator designations.

Intelligence Signals

What the federal record reveals.

Willful Violations

Knowing disregard for worker safety

OSHA's most serious citation — issued when an employer knew a hazard existed and made no effort to eliminate it. Willful violations carry penalties up to $156,259 each and are permanent federal record. WorkRecord weights willful counts 3x serious violations in scoring.

OSHA Violations · 1970–2026

Open Abatement

Violations not yet corrected

OSHA citations require employers to correct the hazard by a set abatement date. Open abatement items — where the deadline has passed without documented correction — represent active, unresolved risk. BP Texas City has carried open abatement items for over 13 years.

OSHA Violations · Abatement Status

Fatality-Linked Inspections

Inspections triggered by worker deaths

OSHA flags inspections opened in response to a workplace fatality. Fatality-linked inspections indicate the most severe safety failures and typically precede the most significant willful citations. WorkRecord applies a hard score cap when fatality flags are present.

OSHA Inspections · Fatality Flag

Severe Injury Rate

Amputations and hospitalizations per employer

27,369 amputations reported to OSHA since 2015 — concentrated in food processing, manufacturing, and construction. WorkRecord benchmarks employer injury counts against NAICS peer groups, flagging employers whose rate exceeds the industry median.

OSHA Severe Injuries · 2015–2025

Back Wages Recovered

Dollar exposure per WHD investigation

The DOL Wage & Hour Division documents back wages owed for every investigation that identifies a violation. Employers with large back wage exposure represent material contingent liability not visible on the balance sheet.

DOL WHD · 365,393 investigations

Repeat Violator Pattern

Same violation, same employer, again

OSHA's repeat citation classification applies when an employer is cited for a substantially similar violation within five years of a prior citation. Repeat citations carry up to 10x the standard penalty and indicate systemic compliance failure rather than isolated incidents.

The Score

WorkRecord Score

A 100-point composite employer compliance score. Higher scores indicate lower federal enforcement exposure. Four components, weighted by their materiality to acquirers and lenders. Methodology fully disclosed.

Scores are computed at the employer level, normalized by industry (NAICS) where relevant, and assigned a risk tier for screener use.

Clean

Score 80–100. Minimal enforcement history. No open abatement, no willful violations, back wages within industry norm.

Monitored

Score 60–79. One or more elevated signals — repeat citations, above-average back wages, or prior WHD investigation with findings.

Cited

Score 40–59. Active willful violations, open abatement items, or severe injury concentration above NAICS peer median.

Critical

Score 0–39. Multiple willful violations, fatality-linked inspections, open abatement, and/or significant back wage exposure in combination.

WorkRecord Score and risk tiers are AuditPoint derived analytical outputs — not official OSHA or DOL designations. All inputs are sourced from federal enforcement data with vintage disclosed per report.

OSHA Violation Severity

Willful violations, repeat citations, penalty magnitude, and open abatement items. Willful counts weighted 3x serious; fatality flag applies hard score cap.

35%

OSHA Inspection Frequency

Inspection rate normalized against NAICS peers. Complaint-driven and referral inspections weighted above programmed. Fatality-linked inspections flagged separately.

25%

WHD Wage Compliance

Back wages recovered, FLSA violation count, repeat violator designation, and civil money penalties assessed. Normalized against employer size and NAICS.

25%

Severe Injury Record

Amputation and hospitalization count, injury rate vs. NAICS peer median, and whether injuries triggered subsequent OSHA inspections.

Who Uses It

Built for high-stakes employer decisions.

Acquisitions & M&A

Private Equity & Acquirers

Screening targets for OSHA and WHD exposure before LOI. Labor compliance liabilities don't appear in seller diligence — they appear in the federal enforcement record.

Score acquisition targets before submitting an offer

Identify open abatement items representing contingent remediation cost

Flag repeat violator pattern as indicator of systemic management failure

Credit & Lending

Lenders & Credit Officers

Sizing labor compliance risk in credit underwriting. Active OSHA abatement and WHD investigations represent contingent liabilities not captured on the balance sheet.

Score borrower at origination for federal enforcement exposure

Monitor portfolio companies for score deterioration quarterly

Flag critical-tier employers for covenant review

Legal & Operations

Law Firms & Operators

Research OSHA inspection and violation history for litigation, regulatory defense, or transactional diligence. Benchmark facilities against industry peers before a programmed inspection arrives.
