Builder ruled responsible for safety violations as controlling employer
A construction company was a controlling employer of a construction worksite found to have safety violations, an administrative law judge held in a final decision of the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission decision released Thursday.
In Secretary of Labor v. Fama Construction LLC, the judge held that Fama is an employer and required to pay nearly $200,000 in penalties for U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration violations.
