23 Jul 2026 Orchids Builders LLCFlorida roofer: $349,754 for repeatedly missing fall protection €307,017
On 21.01. and 10 March 2026, the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) found at two residential construction sites in Rockledge that employees of the roofing contractor were working on roofs without fall protection; training records, eye protection when using nail guns and ladders extending sufficiently above the roof edge were also missing. The company had been inspected seven times since 2023, each time with fall protection violations. Proposed: $349,754 (2 wilful, 4 repeat violations).
Companies that allow the same fall hazards to recur after earlier inspections risk classification as a repeat or wilful violation with substantially higher penalties.

21 Nov 2023 Calcrete Construction Inc.Calcrete Construction: over 1 million USD – up to 68 hours a week without overtime pay Other
Employees of the Glendale construction company regularly worked 45 to 68 hours a week without being paid for overtime; there was also no paid sick leave and no proper wage statements. The California Labor Commissioner’s Office concluded a settlement with the company of more than 1 million USD for the benefit of 249 construction workers.
Anyone allowing long working weeks must also record and pay for them in full – systematic unrecorded overtime comes to light in every wage audit.
