Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer

The correct answer is D. Federal, provincial, and territorial Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) laws in Canada give employees the right to refuse dangerous work, the right to know about workplace hazards, and the right to participate in workplace safety committees. However, the right to seek compensation from employers for injuries is not typically provided under OHS laws. Instead, this is generally covered under workers' compensation laws, which are distinct from OHS regulations. OHS laws focus on preventing workplace injuries and illnesses through standards and rights, whereas workers' compensation laws provide financial compensation and support to workers who suffer from injuries or illnesses due to their work.
