M10.5 Blog about an occupational safety and health organization

OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) is an agency of the United States Department of Labor. It provides resources to keep workers safe in the workplace. The organization assures safe and healthful working conditions for men and women and sets the standard for training, outreach, education, and assistance. In relation to my personal health and safety, I appreciate what OSHA does. it protects workers, employers, and all by creating regulations and enforces them in the workplace. The website provides safe workplace and protects the people from injury and illness. Also, there is protection on the job. Many of the regulations OSHA provides are in my office and my organization follows them to that standard. We follow them to ensure we are safe.

  2. Thanks for posting about OSHA! Claudia posted about NIOSH and it was interesting to do some additional research to learn about the differences in each, since they both seemed quite similar to me. in navigating the website, do you feel like it was easy to find the information that you were looking for. I feel live government websites can be exceptionally challenging to navigate at times, so I'd be interested in learning how user-friendly the OSHA website was.
