OSHA's mission includes...

• A. Ensuring safety and health of workers by setting and enforcing standards, and providing training, outreach, and education
• B. Providing tax incentives to employers
• C. Managing environmental permits
• D. Accrediting universities

Answer: (A)

OSHA's mission centers on protecting workers' safety and health by creating standards that spell out safe work practices and by enforcing those rules in the workplace. They also focus on training, outreach, and education to help both workers and employers recognize hazards and know how to prevent injuries. This combination of setting standards, enforcing them, and providing education is what drives OSHA’s work across workplaces. Other options fall outside OSHA’s scope: tax incentives are handled by other tax or fiscal authorities, environmental permits by environmental agencies, and accrediting universities by independent accreditation bodies.
