Which agency regulates workplace safety and chemical labeling in barber shops?

• A. OSHA
• B. EPA
• C. FDA
• D. CDC

Answer: (A)

The main concept here is which agency enforces safety in the workplace and the labeling of chemicals used there. OSHA, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, sets standards to protect workers and requires proper labeling and Safety Data Sheets for hazardous chemicals, so barber shop staff know hazards, safe handling, storage, and what PPE to use. For typical barber shop chemicals like disinfectants and hair products, the labeling and SDS help workers understand risks and respond to spills or exposures. Other agencies handle different areas—EPA deals with environmental and pesticide issues, FDA with cosmetics and some drugs, CDC provides health guidance—so OSHA is the one governing workplace safety and chemical labeling in this setting.
