How it works

Company to report in three steps.

No subscriptions, no sales calls, no waiting on a research firm.

1

Enter the company

Company name, city and state if you have them. Tell us what decision the report is for — acquisition, franchise purchase, vendor vetting — so the summary speaks your language.

2

Pay $79 once

Secure checkout. If the name is ambiguous — two firms, similar names — we email you to confirm before generating. Accuracy beats speed.

3

Get the PDF in minutes

Your enforcement history report arrives by email: every record dated, sourced to the agency, contested items clearly marked. Bring it to your lawyer, your partners, your gut check.

What's inside

Four agencies. One report.

Each source is a public federal record. Nobody else packages all four as a single instant diligence deliverable.

🏭

OSHA — workplace safety

Inspections, citations, violation severity, and penalties from OSHA's enforcement database — over 3 million inspections on record. Shows whether a company runs a safe operation or a dangerous one.

💵

Wage & Hour Division — back wages

DOL investigations into minimum wage, overtime, and child labor violations: back wages owed, employees affected, civil penalties. A wage-theft pattern is a culture signal — and a liability you inherit.

🌿

EPA ECHO — environmental

Compliance and enforcement history under the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, RCRA, and Safe Drinking Water Act. Environmental non-compliance often predicts safety problems too — same management, same shortcuts.

Company summary

Acme Widget Co. (fictional) — Sampletown, ST. Report generated from public federal records. 4 records found across 3 of 4 agencies. A clean section means no federal records found — not a guarantee of clean operations.

OSHA — 2 inspections

  • 2025 — Planned inspection. 1 serious violation (machine guarding), penalty $14,502 — contested (employer disputing; not final).
  • 2023 — Complaint inspection. No violations cited.

Wage & Hour Division — 1 case

  • 2024 — Overtime investigation. $38,900 in back wages found for 41 employees. Civil penalty $4,120. Case closed.

EPA ECHO — no records found

No enforcement actions or significant non-compliance in the EPA's ECHO system for this company.

Methodology & limitations

Sources: OSHA enforcement database, DOL Wage and Hour compliance data, EPA ECHO — all public federal records, pulled directly from each agency. Federal records only: state-plan states (e.g. California, Washington) run their own OSHA programs; their data is not included. Contested citations are marked and are not final. This report is public-records research, not legal advice.

Why we show you the structure, not a "real" sample: a sample built from a real company's records would be someone's actual enforcement history used as marketing. We don't do that. Your report is generated fresh, from the public record, for the company you name.

FAQ

Fair questions.

What exactly do I get for $79?

One PDF report on a single company’s federal enforcement history: OSHA inspections, violations, and penalties; Wage and Hour Division back-wage cases; EPA enforcement actions from ECHO. Each record shows the date, agency, what happened, and the outcome — with contested citations clearly marked. The report is emailed to you, usually within minutes of payment. One payment, no subscription.

Where does the data come from?

Public federal records: OSHA’s enforcement database, the Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour compliance data, and the EPA’s ECHO (Enforcement and Compliance History Online) system. We pull each agency’s data directly from its public system. Every figure in your report traces to a public record.

Does the report include state records?

No — federal records only, and we say so up front. About half the states run their own OSHA programs (state-plan states like California and Washington), and their enforcement data lives in state systems we don’t cover. If the company operates mainly in a state-plan state, the federal record may be thinner than reality.

What does ‘contested’ mean on a citation?

It means the employer is formally disputing the citation — it isn’t final. We mark contested items clearly instead of presenting them as settled findings, so you read the report the way a diligence professional would: as leads to verify, not verdicts.

Is this legal advice?

No. EnforceCheck is public-records research, not a law firm, and this isn’t legal advice. The report organizes what’s on the public record so you can diligence faster — for a deal of any size, have your own counsel review what matters.

How fast is it?

Your report typically arrives by email within a few minutes of payment, as a PDF. If a company name needs disambiguation (two firms with similar names), we email you to confirm before generating — accuracy beats speed.

What if the company has a clean record?

Then the report says so — that’s a finding, not a failure. A clean federal record is genuinely useful information when you’re deciding whether to acquire, franchise, or hire. We never invent findings to fill a thin report.

Who sees my search?

Nobody. The company you look up is never notified, and we don’t publish or sell searches. Your details are used only to prepare your report — submission records and reports are automatically deleted after 12 months. See our privacy policy for the full details.
