The nature of such alleged violation(s) is described on the citation(s) with reference to the applicable standards, rules, regulations, orders and provisions of the Act. Following is a list of items the employer must consider carefully, to resolve the issues alleged in the citation(s). Following this numbered summary is a more detailed explanation of the requirements. 1. The violation(s) alleged in the citation(s) must be corrected on or before the date(s) shown in the line marked "Date By Which Violation Must Be Abated". If the line is marked "Immediately Upon Receipt," the violation must be corrected on or before the date that the citation is received by the employer. If the violation was corrected during the inspection, the line will be marked "Abated." Correcting a violation does not eliminate the requirement to pay the penalty nor does payment of the penalty negate having to correct the violation. 2. A copy of the citation(s) must be posted at or near the location of the violation(s) for a minimum of 3 days or until the item(s) have been corrected, whichever is later. 3. Documentation of abatement must be provided to the issuing division. Failure to provide such documentation may result in a follow-up inspection. 4. The employer may enter into an informal settlement with the issuing division that can result in up to a 50% reduction in any assessed penalties. The employer should contact the issuing division within 5 workdays upon receiving a citation(s) if interested in an informal settlement. 5. The employer may file a first appeal for modification or dismissal of a citation item and/or any proposed penalty or request an extension of time for abatement. The appeal must be in writing and be postmarked within 15 workdays of receipt (workday is defined below). The first appeal can also result in a penalty reduction of up to 50%. If an appeal is untimely, the citation(s) become a Final Order of the Board of Health and Safety Compliance and Appeals (Board) and is no longer subject to review by the issuing division. An employee or employee representative may appeal abatement dates. 6. Monetary penalties must be paid within 15 workdays of a citation becoming a Final Order of the Board. 7. The employer may file a request for an extension of time to abate a citation(s) that has become a Final Order of the Board. Such a request must be in writing and received or post marked no later than 1 working day following the abatement date. 8. It is unlawful to discriminate against an employee for exercising any of their rights under MIOSHA. Note: As defined in statutes, "workday" or "working day" means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday, or state legal holiday. The state legal holidays are: January 1, New Year's Day citakion and Notification of Penalty Page 1 of 5 M10SHA-2 (Rev. 09/15)
