Everett company faces $230,000 fine for safety violations
EVERETT — An Everett contractor is facing more than $230,000 in penalties for alleged safety violations at two Seattle construction sites.
The Washington State Department of Labor and Industries cited Chilos Builders, 1802 94th St. SW in Everett, for eight safety violations, including conditions that exposed workers to potential fall hazards from two and three stories above ground.
“We’ve cited this company for numerous safety violations the past few years, and we’ve told them many times how to protect their workers from falling from elevations,” said Anne Soiza, the agency’s assistant director for the Division of Occupational Safety and Health.
The agency has inspected Chilos Builders under its current name and a previous company name five times since 2016.
