Which legislation mandates periodic screening of workers for certain exposures, such as loud noise and asbestos?

  1. OSHA regulations

  2. CDC guidelines

  3. FDA requirements

  4. EPA standards

The correct answer is: OSHA regulations

OSHA regulations mandate regular screening of workers for certain exposures to ensure their safety and health in the workplace. The other options, such as CDC guidelines, FDA requirements, and EPA standards, may have some guidelines or requirements related to worker safety and health, but none of them specifically mandate periodic screening for exposures like loud noise and asbestos. While these organizations play important roles in protecting public health, OSHA regulations specifically focus on workplace safety and are the most relevant legislation in this case.
