Which act, enacted in 1970, was created to assure safe and healthful working conditions for workers by setting and enforcing standards and providing training and assistance?

• A. Attitude
• B. OSHA
• C. Resume
• D. Cover letter

Answer: (B)

Creating safe and healthy workplaces through federal standards and enforcement is the central idea. This 1970 law established OSHA, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, to set safety and health standards, inspect workplaces, issue penalties for violations, and provide training and outreach to employers and workers. It empowers a system where employers must comply with standards, keep records, and offer appropriate safety training and protective equipment, while workers gain rights to a safe environment and access to information. The other options—Attitude, Resume, and Cover letter—don't pertain to laws that establish or enforce workplace safety; they relate to personal demeanor or job applications.
