Which of the following potential hazards are addressed by OSHA regulations?

  1. Exposure to wet surfaces and potential slip and falls.

  2. Exposure to loud noises.

  3. Exposure to extreme temperatures.

  4. Exposure to hazardous chemicals.

The correct answer is: Exposure to wet surfaces and potential slip and falls.

OSHA regulations primarily address workplace safety and health hazards to ensure a safe working environment for employees. While exposure to wet surfaces and potential slip and falls is a legitimate safety concern in the workplace, it is not specifically addressed by OSHA regulations. OSHA regulations do cover exposure to loud noises, exposure to extreme temperatures, and exposure to hazardous chemicals, making these hazards important considerations for compliance with OSHA standards. However, the most direct and relevant hazard addressed by OSHA regulations among the options listed is exposure to hazardous chemicals. OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) specifically mandates that employers must provide information and training to employees regarding the chemical hazards present in the workplace to ensure their safety.
