Eula Bingham, who led efforts to make the nation’s workplaces safer during her four years as director of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration in the late 1970s, died June 13 at a hospital in Cincinnati. She was 90.

She had been undergoing treatment for cancer, but the immediate cause of death appeared to be cardiac arrest after a pulmonary embolism, said a daughter, Martha Mattheis.
