What is the primary function of OSHA in workplaces?

Ensuring environmental protection
Enhancing occupational safety and health
Promoting workforce development
Regulating workplace discrimination

The correct answer is: Enhancing occupational safety and health

OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) focuses on protecting workers' safety and health in the workplace. This includes setting and enforcing standards for workplace safety, providing training and education for employers and employees, and conducting inspections to ensure employers are following safety regulations. A is incorrect because OSHA's focus is on workplace safety and health, not environmental protection. C is incorrect because while workforce development is important, it is not the primary function of OSHA. D is incorrect because OSHA does not regulate workplace discrimination, that falls under the jurisdiction of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
