NIOSH stands for which phrase?

• A. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
• B. National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, part of CDC
• C. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health Administration
• D. National Institute for Occupational Health and Safety

Answer: (A)

NIOSH stands for National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. This is the U.S. federal agency focused on researching work-related injuries and illnesses and on making recommendations to prevent them. The exact expansion uses “Institute” (not “Administration”), keeps the words in the order “Occupational Safety and Health,” and does not add a clause about being part of CDC in the name itself. The other options change these elements—using “Administration,” swapping the order, or adding a note about affiliation—so they don’t match the official phrasing.
