How does the National Response Framework address worker safety during emergencies?

  1. By exclusively funding new safety equipment

  2. It doesn't address worker safety

  3. Through the Worker Safety and Health Support Annex, coordinated by OSHA

  4. By requiring all workers to have personal insurance

The correct answer is: Through the Worker Safety and Health Support Annex, coordinated by OSHA

The National Response Framework is a guide for how the nation responds to all types of disasters, including natural and man-made emergencies. It outlines the roles and responsibilities of different organizations and agencies involved in emergency response. One of these roles is ensuring the safety and health of workers involved in response efforts. Option A is incorrect because the National Response Framework does not solely focus on funding safety equipment. Option B is also incorrect because the framework does address worker safety. Option D is incorrect because personal insurance is not required for all workers under the National Response Framework. Option C is the correct answer because the Worker Safety and Health Support Annex, coordinated by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), specifically addresses and oversees worker safety during emergencies.
