Supreme Court bars surprise OSHA spot checks without warrant
The Supreme Court ruled 5 3 that government agents cannot conduct unannounced workplace safety inspections without a warrant, striking down the 1970 OSHA provision as a Fourth Amendment violation. Justice Byron White authored the opinion, with Justices Stevens Blackmun and Rehnquist dissenting. Brennan did not participate. The court said warrants impose little burden and that a reentry with a warrant can avoid loss of surprise.
