Summary
The bill amends Kentucky's occupational health and safety law to increase the maximum civil fines that can be imposed on employers who break safety rules, and it ties those fines to inflation. It also creates criminal penalties for making false statements, giving unauthorized advance notice of inspections, and harming an inspector. The goal is to strengthen enforcement and deter unsafe workplace practices.
