JUAN MAINATO INC.

According to U.S. Department of Labor enforcement records, JUAN MAINATO INC. — a roofing contractors facility located at 21-23 FAYETTE ST., CONCORD, NH 03301 — was the subject of a formal OSHA inspection that resulted in 13 citation(s) and cumulative proposed penalties of $64,668.00. The inspection case was opened on 2022-11-02.

Willful violations carry the highest penalty multipliers under the OSH Act.

BLS Injury Data: According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (2022), this industry sector has an occupational injury rate of 2.8 per 100 full-time workers — 4% above the national average of 2.7. The sector fatality rate is 9.6 per 100,000 workers.

Industry Benchmark: The total penalty of $64,668.00 is more than 17.9× the national average of $3,609.14 for facilities in the Construction sector (NAICS 238160). This sector encompasses 532,749 inspected facilities nationwide with aggregate penalties totaling $1,922.8M.

State Context: Within NH, this facility's penalty places it at the 99th percentile among 12,674 inspected facilities. The statewide average penalty is $3,397.44.

Citation Analysis: The inspection produced 13 citations spanning 11 distinct OSHA regulatory standards. The citation breakdown includes: 9 serious — A workplace hazard that could cause death or serious physical harm exists, and the employer knew or should have known about the condition. 1 repeat — A substantially similar violation was found during a previous inspection and the original citation has become a final order. 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. 2 other-than-serious — The violation has a direct relationship to job safety and health but is unlikely to cause death or serious physical harm.

Enforcement Timeline: Citations were issued beginning February 3, 2023 with the latest abatement deadline set for May 30, 2023. Of the 13 total citations, 0 (0%) have been marked as abated in DOL records, which may indicate ongoing compliance gaps requiring further regulatory attention.

Penalty Assessment: The cumulative penalty of $64,668.00 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 $4,974.46 falls within the standard penalty range.

The enforcement record for Juan Mainato Inc. reveals a systemic disregard for fundamental life-safety protocols, characterized by a dangerous synergy of fall hazards and inadequate supervision. The assessment of a willful violation under 1926.501(b)(13) is the most critical element of this inspection, signaling that management possessed plain indifference to, or intentional disregard for, OSHA’s residential fall protection requirements. This willful designation, carrying a penalty significantly higher than industry averages for small-scale roofing contractors, underscores a high-gravity environment where workers were exposed to potentially fatal falls without required mitigation. Furthermore, the presence of a repeat violation under 1926.20(b)(2) regarding accident prevention programs proves that prior agency interventions failed to catalyze a shift in safety culture. The citation pattern—spanning head and eye protection, electrical safety, ladder stability, and hoist operations—indicates a comprehensive failure in basic site management and competent person oversight. Rather than isolated lapses, these thirteen citations reflect
