The Occupational Safety and Health Administration was formerly part of the US Department of Labor and was established as part of the Occupational Safety and Health Act in 1970. Its mission is to prevent injury, illness and death in the workplace by enacting and enforcing workplace safety and hygiene regulations (called standards). - Ensuring employee health and safety is extremely important to the organization. The organization is working on maintaining safety facilities, sponsorsing appropriate training programs, and providing necessary safety equipment.

To establish workplace safety and health standards, the law also established the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) as a research institution of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). OSHA is a division of the US Department of Labor, oversees the management of the law, and carries out standards in all 50 states.

OSHA represents the Occupational Safety and Health Bureau of the US Department of Labor. The role of OSHA is to protect the safety and health of workers. The US Congress established OSHA based on the Occupational Safety and Health Act (Occupational Safety and Health Act) in 1970. In 1911, Triangle Shirtwaist was fired in New York and 500 employees occurred. 146 people died in one of the most serious work related disasters in our history. Factory workers, mainly young female immigrants, work long hours with low wages, died because the door is locked and there is no escape path. The tragedy furiousized the public and called for reform of security and health. Francis Perkins, who later became Minister of Labor, investigated triangular fires and tried to find ways to prevent future incidents.
