Practice question
A factory introduces a hazardous chemical process but leaves its old OSH information unchanged. It distributes unfamiliar-language labels and charges workers for the required respirators. The employer says supplying any mask is sufficient compliance. Which is the best response?
- Any mask conclusively satisfies all duties
- The employer must address the changed hazards, provide understandable information and appropriate training, and supply suitable required PPE at no cost
- Workers must individually translate labels and fund all controls
- Only a completed accident triggers any safety-information duty
- An old program remains sufficient forever regardless of process changes
