Every year California’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (CAL/OSHA) releases a report with details of the top-cited violations across several industries for the previous year. The report specific to the agriculture industry showed for the year 2017 to 2018, businesses were cited 345 times for a total of $1,154,682 in fines.
