BCommon areas and building systems they control, ensuring a safe work environment for building employees and potentially tenants' employees in common areas✓ Correct
COnly the exterior of the building
DOSHA does not apply to commercial real estate
Explanation
While individual employers (tenants) are primarily responsible for OSHA compliance within their own leased spaces, building owners and managers have responsibilities for safety in areas they control—common areas, building systems, and shared facilities. General duty clause obligations may extend to building management activities.
