OSH Security Practice Test

The correct choice highlights a fundamental principle of workplace safety and labor relations within the framework of the Occupational Health and Safety Act. This legislation is designed to protect workers' rights in numerous ways, including providing avenues for refusing unsafe work, participating in health and safety programs, and having the right to know about potential hazards in the workplace.

The right to disobey a direct order from a supervisor is not supported by the Occupational Health and Safety Act in the same way as the other rights mentioned. While a worker does have the right to refuse work they believe poses an immediate danger to their health or safety, this must be done in a manner that complies with workplace protocols. Disobeying an order without justification could undermine workplace authority and structure, and could potentially lead to disciplinary action.

Thus, the other rights provided by the Act are crucial components of ensuring a safe working environment, empowering workers to advocate for their safety without facing punitive actions for doing so.
