Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Child health is affected by many factors; therefore, the responsibility for improving children's health rests with the entire community. This responsibility begins with parents and includes health care professionals, community groups, businesses, and the public sector. When a child gets older, he or she can be responsible for practicing healthy behaviors and obtaining proper health care.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: E, F
The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 identifies the roles of the various government agencies, provides for the establishment of federal occupational safety and health standards, and identifies a structure of penalties, fines, and sentences for violations of regulations. Inspections are a responsibility of OSHA, not NIOSH. The Workers' Compensation Act helps protect employers against lawsuits, but any citizen can sue anyone at any time, so it is less expensive to keep the environment and the employee as safe as possible. Although having a safe environment shows good public relations and is an ethical and moral responsibility, these are not the main reasons why more effort has been put into ensuring a safe environment for employees.
