The word Kosher comes from the Hebrew term: Kasher, meaning 'fit' (in this context, food fit for consumption by observant Jews). As someone else has already said, in the UK, it's also come to mean anything that's legal (not 'shady'), or something that's genuine or legitimate, as opposed to something counterfeit, etc.

I think a lot of folks are getting KOSHA confused with "kosher" which is, put simply, basic Jewish dietary law (see source links #1). KOSHA is an acronym for "Korea Occupational Safety & Health Agency" (see source links #2). Unless you are refering to the band (see source links #3). Or, do you mean, Kosas or Koshas which are five cases or sheaths that cover the Atman in Hinduism (see source links #4).
The five Koshas are:
Annamaya kosha, the food-body
Pranamaya kosha, the breath (prana)
Manomaya kosha, or “mind-sheath” (Manas)
Vijnanamaya kosha, that which discriminates, determines or wills (Vijnana)
Anandamaya kosha, or bliss (Ananda)
I hope this helps.
