What is not required by OSHA regulations?

The correct answer is that all notices, including de minimis notices, must be posted is not required by OSHA regulations. De minimis violations refer to those that do not have a direct impact on health or safety; therefore, while OSHA may record and address such violations, there is no obligation for these notifications to be posted prominently.

OSHA regulations focus on serious safety issues that pose risks to employees and make it mandatory to communicate violations that have a meaningful impact on workplace safety. While other types of notices and penalties play a necessary role in the enforcement of safety standards, the unique classification of de minimis violations highlights that not all findings require public posting.

In contrast, serious and nonserious violations come with specific penalties and expectations for notification, emphasizing the importance of effectively communicating significant hazards in the workplace. Penalties are often necessary to encourage compliance and ensure that employers prioritize employee safety.
