Question

In addition to meeting OSHA standards, the Department of Defense requires each military department, including the Department of the Army, to administer a comprehensive safety and occupational health program. In which of the following documents does this requirement appear

Answer 1

Since the options are not given, I am giving a generally assumed answer.

The correct answer could be - DoD 6055.05-M document.

OSHA stands for the Occupational Safety and Health Administration which is public health agency in the US that is dedicated to the proposition that no employee or worker will have to choose in between their job and their life.

The DoD 6055.5-M is an Occupational Medical Surveillance Manual that helps in providing information to the health professionals and also gives references that are appropriate to develop and conduct the occupational medical examinations and surveillance by identifying the health risks that are associated with specific jobs, exposures and processes.

This Manual is applicable to the workers at the Office of the Secretary of Defense, to the Military Departments,  the DoD Field Activities,  the Defense Agencies,  and all the other organizational entities that are included under the Department of Defense.

Answer 2

The requirement is found within the document known as DoD Instruction 6055.1, . This is also referred to as the DoD Safety and Occupational Health (SOH) Program. In it this document states that each military department must not only comply to OSHA standards, but should also have a separate comprehensive safety and occupational health program.
