A quick definition of Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA):

The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) is a law that was made in 1970 to make sure that people who work have safe and healthy working conditions. The law says that employers have to give their workers a safe place to work and make sure that they are not in danger of getting hurt or sick. The law also created a group called OSHA to help make sure that employers follow the rules and keep their workers safe. The goal of the law is to prevent accidents and keep people from getting hurt at work.

A more thorough explanation:

The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) is a federal law that was passed in 1970 to make sure that workplaces are safe for employees. The law is also known as the Williams-Steiger Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. Its main goal is to prevent accidents and injuries from happening in the workplace.

OSHA gives the Secretary of Labor the power to create rules and standards to make sure that employers provide a safe working environment for their employees. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission (OSHRC), and the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) were created to help enforce the law.

Under OSHA, employers are required to provide a workplace that is free from hazards that could cause serious harm or death to their employees. Employers must also follow the rules and standards set by OSHA to ensure that their workplace is safe.

For example, if an employer has workers who are exposed to dangerous chemicals, OSHA requires the employer to provide protective equipment and training to prevent accidents and injuries. If an employer fails to follow OSHA rules and standards, they can be fined or even shut down.

Overall, OSHA is an important law that helps protect workers from harm in the workplace. It is the responsibility of employers to follow OSHA rules and standards to ensure that their employees are safe while on the job.
