List and explain three different types of OSHA citations and the typical penalties that accompany them. (Canvas info sheet)

Other-than-serious violation:A violation that has a direct relationship to job safety and health, but probably would not cause death or serious physical harm. A proposed penalty for each violation is discretionary. A penalty for an other-than-serious violation may be adjusted downward by as much as 95%, depending on the employer's good faith (demonstrated efforts to comply with the act), history of previous violations, and size of business.Serious violation:A violation in which there is a high probability that death or serious physical injury may result and hat the employer knew or should have known of the hazard. OSHA proposes a mandatory penalty for each serious violation. The actual penalty may be adjusted downward depending on the employer's good faith, history or prior violations, and the gravity of the alleged violation.Willful violation:A violation that the employer intentionally and knowingly commits. The employer either knows that what he or she is doing constitutes a violation or is aware that a hazardous condition exists and has made no reasonable effort to eliminate it. Penalties may be proposed for each willful violation, with a minimum penalty of $5,000 for each violation. A proposed penalty for a willful violation may be adjusted downward, depending on the size of the business and its history of previous violations. Usually, no credit is given for good faith. If an employer is convicted of a willful violation of a standard that has resulted in the death of an employee, the offense is punishable by a court-imposed fine or by imprisonment for up to six months, or both. A fine of up to $250,000 for an individual or $500,000 for a corporation may be imposed for a criminal conviction.
