US Department of Labor obtains decision to revoke Lynn contractor’s license for repeated defiance of safety regulations, failure to pay $300K in penalties

Here is a summary of the provided document:

Summary:

The Massachusetts Board of Building Regulations and Standards has revoked the construction supervisor's license of William Trahant for at least two years due to repeated violations of federal fall safety regulations and failure to pay over $300,000 in related penalties. The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) filed a complaint against Trahant's company, citing seven separate citations since 2014. OSHA estimates that Trahant holds hundreds of active building permits in Massachusetts, and the decision reinforces the importance of prioritizing worker safety, particularly in the construction industry.
