Enforcement Analysis

According to U.S. Department of Labor enforcement records, KULKA ELECTRIC CORP — a industry sector 00 facility located at 520 SOUTH FULTON AVENUE, Mount Vernon, NY 10551 — was the subject of a formal OSHA inspection that resulted in 18 citation(s) and cumulative proposed penalties of $685.00. The inspection case was opened on 1979-10-30.

The volume of citations issued during this inspection suggests systematic compliance deficiencies rather than isolated incidents. Facilities with 10 or more citations typically face comprehensive abatement requirements and may be subject to follow-up inspections.

State Context: Within NY, this facility's penalty places it at the 61th percentile among 140,736 inspected facilities. The statewide average penalty is $2,208.33.

Citation Analysis: The inspection produced 18 citations spanning 8 distinct OSHA regulatory standards. The citation breakdown includes: 3 serious — A workplace hazard that could cause death or serious physical harm exists, and the employer knew or should have known about the condition. 12 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 November 16, 1976 with the latest abatement deadline set for December 31, 1981. Of the 18 total citations, 13 (72%) have been marked as abated in DOL records, suggesting partial progress toward required corrective actions.

Penalty Assessment: The total proposed penalty of $685.00 falls within OSHA's standard enforcement range and may have been adjusted through informal settlement conference procedures, penalty reduction factors, or good faith credit for demonstrated safety and health management systems.
