Quit yer shit.You want to play with words we can do it all day, keyword here would be unauthorized.First, as she said, she had no objection to them being there, nor would have. Did you miss that?
Second, Him saying it's actually illegal for the Department of Labor's OSHA to give advance notice when it does inspections is not incorrect.
The process would simply be delayed shortly as they can come up with one pert quick - there is a very low bar.
Oh! And look, right out of the OSHA manual:
"Workers sometimes think that management knows about an OSHA inspection in
advance. However, it is a crime for OSHA employees to give unauthorized advance
notice of an inspection. Sometimes a delay between the inspector's arrival at the
workplace and the beginning of the inspection allows time for employers to change
conditions."

OOps.
You declared "I'm afraid not" when I stated
The "she said that OSHA showed up without warning" is really, really a stupid line.
The whole point is to show up without warning. Duh.
In fact - it is against the law to give warning.
You're the one playing word games. Eat it.

Inspections are always conducted without advance notice.
There are, however, special circumstances under which
OSHA may give notice to the employer, but such a notice will
normally be less than 24 hours. These circumstances include
the following:
•
Imminent danger situations that require correction as
soon as possible;
•
Accident investigations where the employer has notified
the agency of a fatality or catastrophe;
•
Inspections that must take place after regular business
hours or that require special preparation;
•
Cases where notice is required to ensure that the
employer and employee representative or other
personnel will be present;
•
Cases where an inspection must be delayed for more
than 5 working days when there is good cause; and
•
Situations in which the OSHA Area Director determines
that advance notice would produce a more thorough or
effective inspection.
It's not illegal.
