It absorbs UV-B, which damages DNA.
It moderates day/night temperature swings.
It provides a small link between the gases in the ozone layer, and radiative heat transfer to space and the Earth's surface. These gases are warmer than the temperature of deep space, so it will very slightly reduce heat lost to space at night.
Ultraviolet rays from the sun are prevented from reaching Earth.

The ozone layer acts as a protective barrier in the Earth's stratosphere by absorbing and filtering out harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. This helps prevent skin cancer, cataracts, and other health issues in humans, as well as protects ecosystems and agricultural productivity from UV damage.
