Answer to Question 1

The Occupational Safety and Health Act created three federal agencies for administration and enforcement of Act. They are as follows:
Occupational Safety and Health Administration
The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health
The Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is the primary agency created for the enforcement of the OSHA. OSHA acts on behalf of the Secretary of Labor. It is an independent agency within the Department of Labor which has the authority to:

promulgate standards;
conduct inspections of workplaces;
issue citations for violations; and
recommend penalties.
The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) is an agency created to conduct research and promote the application of the research results to ensure that no worker will suffer diminished health, reduced functional capacity, or decreased life expectancy as a result of his or her work experience.

The Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission (OSHRC) is a quasi-judicial agency created to adjudicate contested enforcement actions of OSHA.
