An OSHA violation with substantial probability of death or serious physical harm as the result of a workplace hazard is which of the following?
  1. Willful
  2. Serious
  3. Repeat
  4. De-minimus
Explanation
Answer - B - A serious violation is the second level of violation and occurs when there is substantial probability of death or serious physical harm.

Key Takeaway: Willful violations are done intentionally or with “plain indifference” to the requirements and have the potential for serious harm or injury. Repeat violations are violations for which an employer has been previously cited and have recurred. De-minimus violations are unlikely to cause serious harm or injury.
