The clock starts immediately

15 working days to request an informal conference. Miss it and the penalty locks in permanently.

📋

Documentation is everything

Cal/OSHA reduces penalties for good faith — but only with the right documents. No docs, no reduction.

💸

Consultants cost more than the fine

Big 4 firms charge $25K+ for remediation engagements. Most cited SMBs don't have that option.

How it works

Citation in. Compliance out.

Three steps. No jargon. No 6-month implementation. You get a ready-to-submit packet while the informal conference window is still open.

Based on a representative IIPP citation in the Los Angeles district. Penalty reductions vary by violation type, employer history, and documentation quality. Good-faith reductions of 25–35% are standard for employers with no prior citation history who provide complete abatement evidence.

We got the citation on a Thursday. By Monday we had a complete corrective action plan and abatement letter. We walked into the informal conference with a full packet and they cut the penalty by more than a third. I had no idea you could even do that.
