OSHA is dedicated to saving lives, preventing injuries and illnesses,
and protecting America's workers. Safety and health add value to
your business, to your workplace, and to your life. This message
is far
more than a slogan; it’s the foundation on which OSHA has worked
for more than 30 years to help employers and employees save lives,
prevent injuries, and protect the health of America’s workforce.
For more information on occupational health, visit the OSHA Web site.
