Inspection Tour

During the course of the inspection, the CSHO will point out to the employer any unsafe or unhealthful working conditions observed. At the same time, the CSHO will discuss possible corrective action if the employer so desires.

Some apparent violations detected by the compliance officer can be corrected immediately. Even though corrected, however, the apparent violations may still serve as the basis for a citation and/or notice of proposed penalty.

An inspection tour may cover part or all of an establishment, even if the inspection resulted from a specific complaint, fatality, or catastrophe.
