FLAMINGO LAS VEGAS

According to U.S. Department of Labor enforcement records, FLAMINGO LAS VEGAS — a industry sector 00 facility located at 3555 LAS VEGAS BLVD., SOUTH, LAS VEGAS, NV 89109 — was the subject of a formal OSHA inspection that resulted in 162 citation(s) and cumulative proposed penalties of $87,436.75. The inspection case was opened on 1984-09-25.

Federal investigators determined that one or more violations at this facility were committed willfully — meaning the employer either knowingly failed to comply with OSHA standards or acted with plain indifference to employee safety. Willful violations carry the highest penalty multipliers under the OSH Act.

State Context: Within NV, this facility's penalty places it at the 100th percentile among 27,382 inspected facilities. The statewide average penalty is $1,830.01.

Citation Analysis: The inspection produced 162 citations spanning 13 distinct OSHA regulatory standards. The citation breakdown includes: 14 other-than-serious — The violation has a direct relationship to job safety and health but is unlikely to cause death or serious physical harm. 1 willful — The employer intentionally and knowingly committed the violation, demonstrating either an intentional disregard for the requirements of the OSH Act or plain indifference to employee safety and health.

Enforcement Timeline: Citations were issued beginning October 25, 1984 with the latest abatement deadline set for July 26, 1990. Of the 162 total citations, 13 (8%) have been marked as abated in DOL records, which may indicate ongoing compliance gaps requiring further regulatory attention.

Penalty Assessment: The cumulative penalty of $87,436.75 reflects OSHA's gravity-based penalty calculation methodology, which considers the severity of potential injury, the probability of occurrence, the employer's size, good faith, and violation history. The per-citation average of $539.73 falls within the standard penalty range.

The 1984 enforcement action against the Flamingo Las Vegas represents a massive systemic failure in safety management
