abstract: "How many workplace safety inspections OSHA opened in each state and industry, how many ended in citations, how many violations were found (serious, willful, repeat) and the current penalties, from the Department of Labor's OSHA enforcement files (federal and state-plan), by fiscal year: the latest year and the ten-year window, for the US, every state and territory with inspections, and each state's NAICS sectors. Only counts and dollar totals: no employer, address or inspection number is in the dataset."
