Explanation:

The OSH act stands for Occupational Safety and Health Act. It is act of the United States labor law governing the health and safety of the employees working in any private sector or in the public sector.

According to this act, the employers are responsible to provide a safe workplace environment to the employees working in their organization. They must follow the safety and health standards as mentioned in the OSH act.

In the context, when there is breakdown in one of the ventilation fans in the painting facility of the automobile factory causing fumes buildup at the site, the management of the facility should immediately informed the employees about their exposure to hazardous chemicals.
