You received a Cal/OSHA Citation. Should I appeal? YES. It is your right! However, you must act without delay as it can lead to costly consequences. 

SAFETYACUITY understands the full ramifications of a Cal/OSHA citation affecting your business’s ability to do business in a variety of ways. The penalties associated with unchallenged citations can greatly affect your profitability. For example, a serious citation can result in heavy penalties ranging from hundreds to $18,000–$25,000. 

There are also serious implications of future citations for the same or similar violation within five (5) years that can result in a citation classified as Repeat, with penalties multiplied by two for a first repeat and multiplied by ten for a third repeat. If Cal/OSHA believes the citation should be classified as Willful, the standard penalty will be multiplied by five, “not to exceed” $142,692. 

The final results can threaten your ability to compete and qualify for contracts, and (remove the comma after contracts) will be public record.
