Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) violations can be categorized into several types: serious violations, where there is a substantial probability of death or serious harm; willful violations, which are intentional and disregard safety regulations; repeat violations, which occur when an employer has previously been cited for the same issue; and other-than-serious violations, which do not pose a direct threat to health or safety but still violate regulations. Each type carries different penalties and implications for workplace safety.

Willful serious violations occur when an employer knowingly disregards safety regulations, demonstrating a clear intent to violate standards, which poses a significant risk of harm. Unlike serious violations, which involve a substantial probability of death or serious injury without intent, willful serious violations indicate a conscious choice to ignore safety requirements. Repeat violations are categorized as instances where an employer has previously been cited for the same or similar violation and fails to correct it. This distinction underscores the severity of the employer's actions and their commitment to workplace safety.
