What does OSHA stand for?

• A. Office of Safety and Health Administration
• B. Occupational Safety and Health Administration, run by the Dept of Labor
• C. Occupational Standards and Health Agency
• D. Occupational Safety and Health Accreditation

Answer: (B)

OSHA stands for Occupational Safety and Health Administration. It’s a federal agency under the U.S. Department of Labor charged with keeping workplaces safe and healthy by setting and enforcing safety standards, providing training and outreach, and assisting employers and workers in understanding their rights and responsibilities. The other phrases misstate the agency’s name or its governing department, so they don’t reflect the official designation.
