Which of the following are OSHA standards?

• A. Hazard Communication, Electrical Safety, Fire Safety
• B. Formaldehyde Exposure, Hazard Communication, Bloodborne Pathogens
• C. Noise Exposure, Hazard Communication, Bloodborne Pathogens
• D. Formal­dehyde Exposure, Personal Protective Equipment, Hazardous Waste

Answer: (B)

OSHA standards target specific workplace hazards with named regulations. The trio listed as standards—Hazard Communication, Bloodborne Pathogens, and Formaldehyde Exposure—are all clearly identified OSHA standards with dedicated rules. Hazard Communication requires labeling, safety data sheets, and employee training about chemical hazards; Bloodborne Pathogens sets requirements for exposure plans, PPE, vaccination, and training to protect workers who may contact blood or infectious materials; Formaldehyde Exposure establishes permissible exposure limits and controls for workplaces using formaldehyde, including engineering controls and medical surveillance. The other options mix items that OSHA regulates in some form but are not named as a single standard in the same way (for example, electrical safety and fire safety are regulated through multiple subparts and codes, and hazardous waste is primarily addressed under HAZWOPER rather than a stand-alone “hazardous waste” standard).
