Which of the following is NOT one of the five major OSHA standards?

1. Fire Safety Procedures

2. Bloodborne Pathogens

3. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

4. Lockout/Tagout Standard for Controlling Energy Sources

The correct answer is: Fire Safety Procedures

Fire Safety Procedures is not classified as one of the five major OSHA standards. OSHA, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, focuses primarily on five key areas that are critical to worker safety and health. These major standards include Bloodborne Pathogens, which address the risks associated with exposure to bloodborne diseases; Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), which outlines requirements for protective gear to safeguard employees; and the Lockout/Tagout Standard, which regulates the control of hazardous energy during maintenance and servicing activities. While Fire Safety is an important aspect of workplace safety, it falls under broader safety regulations and guidelines rather than being categorized as one of the foundational OSHA standards. Thus, identifying Fire Safety Procedures as not being one of the five major standards accurately reflects its distinct classification outside of OSHA's major areas of focus.
