An OSHA violation for failing to conduct forklift pre-inspections (daily checks) is typically cited as a Serious Violation, with penalties up to $16,550 per instance, though it could reach $165,514 if deemed willful or repeated, with fines depending on severity, company history, and prompt abatement. This mandatory requirement ensures operational safety, and not doing it risks serious injury and substantial fines, easily in the thousands per violation.
