In-Reply-To: [DCHAS-L] New OSHA SDS citation resource at ILPI

Demystify: 
Pete Reinhardt asked "What is an SDS citation? A manufacturer supplying a bad SDS? An employer not providing an SDS?”

That is a great question! First about the citations…that’s at the top of the page, but there is so much info it’s easy to miss:

PastedGraphic-4.tiff

So this morning I added a feature that shows exactly what provision of the Standard was cited. You now you can sort on any column and the hyperlink takes you to the relevant portion of the standard to see what that corresponds to: https://www.ilpi.com/msds/osha/citations_g.html#paragraph-summary  So if you want to know what paragraph (g)(5) is, you click on it and find out: https://www.ilpi.com/msds/osha/1910_1200.html#1910.1200(g)(5)


PastedGraphic-1.tiff

And while I was browsing that data I noticed that there is only one violation in 2026 so far for violating paragraph (g)(5) - for $70,000, which is unusually large. So then I added the ability to browse the citations by paragraph and year to make that kind of stuff easy to look up without downloading the dataset:

PastedGraphic-2.tiff

So now you can go directly to the OSHA citation for that item that jumps out at you: https://www.osha.gov/ords/imis/establishment.inspection_detail?id=1855764.015  and LORD does that make sense when you look at the number and scope of the violations from that particular inspection - 44 Willful ones - one of which was for the SDS paragraph (g)(5) violation:

PastedGraphic-3.tiff

OSHA takes willful violations very seriously: https://www.osha.gov/memos/2026-05-21/2026-annual-adjustments-osha-civil-penalties

FYI, in the Standard Cited column on OSHA’s page that code tells you what was cited. So on the first line in the screenshot above, the 19100022 refers to 29 CFR 1910.22 and A01 refers to paragraph (a)(1): https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/regulations/standardnumber/1910/1910.22

And, finally - and this is a hoot - when you look at all that data, the analysis, and functions, realize that I literally did this all yesterday, starting with a simple prompt to ChatGPT, which did all the heavy lift of pulling the data and creating the chart/table displays.

I could repeat this exercise for the other portions of the HazCom Standard - paragraph (e) - Written Hazard Communication Program, paragraph (f) - Labels and Other Forms of Warning, and paragraph (h) - Employee Information and Training if anyone is interested in those.
