Reader's guide·For workers & job-seekers

Look up an employer's safety record before you take the job.

When a workplace injury is serious, employers must report it to federal OSHA, and those reports are public. Search 105,313 of them across 71,083 employers, free, no account.

Start here

Find a company → Browse the A–Z directory; every company's page lists its injuries, inspections, and citations in plain language. Browse by hazard → What actually happens around forklifts, falls, heat, and chemicals: real incident narratives, in OSHA's own words. Your state's record → Recent severe injuries and inspections near you, state by state. How to read these records → What a severe-injury report is, what an inspection means, and what the records can and can't tell you.

Worth knowing

On any company's page you can set a free email watch: one email if a new severe-injury report names that employer, unsubscribe in one click. No account, ever. A company with records isn't automatically unsafe (bigger companies file more reports), and one with none isn't automatically safe, so read the narratives. Every lookup here is free; if you ever want the full benchmarked history in one document (rates against the industry, citations, penalties), that exists as a $149 employer report — but nothing on this site requires it.
