The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) mandates that employers provide adequate first aid supplies and training in the workplace, ensuring prompt treatment of injuries and illnesses. The standard outlines requirements for first aid kits, medical personnel, and emergency response procedures to mitigate workplace hazards and protect employee health.

This act, enforced by the FDA, ensures the safety and effectiveness of medical devices through premarket approval and postmarket surveillance. It requires manufacturers to adhere to strict standards for device design, testing, and labeling, protecting consumers from unsafe or ineffective medical products.

The FDA regulates over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, mandating proper labeling and directions for use to ensure consumer safety. These regulations dictate requirements for active ingredients, warnings, and dosage instructions, helping consumers make informed choices when self-treating with OTC medications.
