Of the more than 300 employers who have accrued safety penalties during the coronavirus pandemic, only about one-third have paid, according to an investigation by Reuters.

The analysis found only 108 employers cited by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) had paid the fines, for a total of about $897,000. The analysis found the majority of companies receiving OSHA citations have appealed, compared to about 8 percent that appealed in the five years preceding the pandemic.
