Best Answer

OSHA does not have the authority to impose penalties on individual employees, only on employers. Therefore, there are no OSHA OSHA penalties for operating machinery while under the influence. If you operate machinery while under the influence of drugs or alcohol and place yourself or others at risk as a result, the penalties to you will come from your employer, who may go so far as to fire you. If your employer does not take action to prevent such improper employee conduct, the employer may be subject to fines and citations from OSHA.
