Which organization regulates all safety standards in a workplace?

  1. FDA

  2. EPA

  3. OSHA

  4. CDC

The correct answer is: OSHA

OSHA, or the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, is the government agency responsible for regulating and enforcing safety standards in the workplace. This includes things like employee health and safety training, providing safety equipment, and maintaining a safe and healthy work environment. Option A, the FDA, is responsible for regulating food and drug safety, not workplace safety. Option B, the EPA, focuses on environmental protection rather than workplace safety. Option D, the CDC, primarily deals with disease prevention and control, not workplace safety.
