Which organization oversees occupational safety across Oregon?

OSHA
DEQ
CCB
EPA

The correct answer is: OSHA

The organization that oversees occupational safety across Oregon is OSHA, which stands for the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. OSHA is a federal agency under the United States Department of Labor, responsible for ensuring safe and healthy working conditions by setting and enforcing standards and by providing training, outreach, education, and assistance. In Oregon, OSHA operates through the Oregon OSHA program, which is responsible for enforcing workplace safety and health regulations within the state. This includes inspections, compliance assistance, and the implementation of safety standards tailored to the specific needs of different industries in Oregon. The other organizations mentioned serve different purposes: the DEQ (Department of Environmental Quality) focuses on environmental protection and pollution control, the CCB (Construction Contractors Board) regulates construction contractors in Oregon, and the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) is a federal agency that deals with national environmental issues.
