Noise (Construction) in Washington: OSHA enforcement record

No item under 29 CFR 1926.52 at an inspected site in Washington since October 1, 2024.

From October 1, 2024 to October 21, 2026, the Department of Labor's OSHA enforcement data record no citation item under 29 CFR 1926.52 at an inspected site in Washington. In FY2025 (October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025), the section drew 4 citation items across the country, at inspected sites in 4 places (states, DC and territories). These counts describe inspected establishments, not every employer in Washington.

All 24,742 items Washington's State Plan office recorded from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2026 carry Washington's own rule numbers, which this page does not count.
