Recent OSHA inspections and citations in Montana
Counts of OSHA inspections opened in each window ending October 31, 2026, from the U.S. Department of Labor's OSHA enforcement data (snapshot 2026-10-31; latest inspection open date in the file: 2026-10-28). Includes federal OSHA and State Plan inspections recorded in the national database.
The last few days are incomplete: OSHA offices enter inspections after they open, so recent counts rise as data arrives. Citations are published later than inspections (OSHA says citation details may appear 5 days after the employer receives them for federal inspections and 30 days for State Plan inspections), so recent inspections often show none yet.

Not listed: 43 inspections whose establishment name is withheld (it may be an individual's name). We show only the count, because an inspection's details can be matched to OSHA's public file to identify the establishment.
“Citations” counts non-deleted violation items OSHA has published for that inspection, with the current penalty (which can change through settlement or contest). Names that don't look like a business or public body are withheld (why). Street addresses are not shown. Check each record on OSHA's site using its activity number (not shown when the name is withheld).

Are OSHA inspection records public?
