According to the text, which organization has pursued national standardization of workplaces and vendors through wellness and health promotion standards?

  1. NIOSH

  2. NCQA

  3. AHA

  4. ILO

The correct answer is: NCQA

The correct answer is B NCQA. NCQA (National Committee for Quality Assurance) has actively worked towards promoting wellness and health standards in workplaces and vendors through the implementation of national standards. This is evident in their role in establishing and ensuring compliance with standards for primary care and other health services. The other options, NIOSH, AHA, and ILO, do not specifically focus on workplace and vendor standardization in their efforts. NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) primarily focuses on workplace safety and health, while AHA (American Heart Association) mainly focuses on education and research related to heart health. ILO (International Labour Organization) aims to promote international labor standards and improve working conditions, but does not specifically address wellness and health promotion in the workplace. Therefore, the most accurate answer is B: NCQA.
