Industry Benchmark: The total penalty of $27,350.00 is more than 9.8× the national average of $2,782.05 for facilities in the Food Services sector (NAICS 721110). This sector encompasses 22,815 inspected facilities nationwide with aggregate penalties totaling $63.5M.

State Context: Within NV, this facility's penalty places it at the 99th percentile among 27,382 inspected facilities. The statewide average penalty is $1,830.01.

Citation Analysis: The inspection produced 18 citations spanning 10 distinct OSHA regulatory standards. The citation breakdown includes: 7 serious — A workplace hazard that could cause death or serious physical harm exists, and the employer knew or should have known about the condition. 8 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 4, 2025 with the latest abatement deadline set for March 27, 2025. Of the 18 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 $27,350.00 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 $1,519.44 falls within the standard penalty range.

The enforcement record for Nirbhao Hospitality, Inc. reveals a troubling concentration of high-gravity "Serious" violations that transcend simple housekeeping oversights, pointing instead to a systemic failure in fundamental mechanical and electrical safety management. With 18 total citations and penalties significantly exceeding industry averages for the hospitality sector (NAICS 721110), the facility demonstrated a pervasive disregard for physical hazard mitigation. The citations under 1910.219 for unguarded pulleys and sprocket chains indicate that employees were routinely exposed to "caught-in" hazards capable of causing amputations or severe crushing injuries. These mechanical risks were compounded by a lack of electrical safety training (1910.332) and improper equipment installation, suggesting that staff were tasked with operating or maintaining machinery without the requisite technical competency or protective oversight. The recurring themes of walking-working surface hazards (1910.22) and inadequate fall protection (1910.29) further underscore a reactive rather than proactive safety culture. While no "Willful" designations were issued, the breadth of the "Serious" citations—spanning electrical grounding, guarding, and PPE—suggests that safety was secondary to operational throughput. This pattern of neglect represents a high-liability environment where the lack of a comprehensive safety management system (SMS) left workers vulnerable to high-probability, high-impact incidents. For compliance professionals, this record serves as a case study in how the absence of basic preventative maintenance and safety training can lead to a compounding risk profile that invites heavy regulatory scrutiny.
