About this data
This profile aggregates federal enforcement records on MET-CON CONSTRUCTION INC from every major federal compliance and enforcement source.

Establishments are matched across agencies using normalized employer name, state, and ZIP code. This establishment resolves to the parent rollup Met-Con Companies, which operates 19 establishments in our dataset.
OSHA citations typically appear 3–8 months after the inspection, so very recent enforcement actions may not yet be reflected. Profiles may be incomplete if the establishment operates under multiple legal names or files under variations our entity-matching rules don’t yet cover.
