  1. Under OSHA's Hierarchy of Controls, which control measure is considered most effective for eliminating workplace hazards?

    Answer: Elimination

    Elimination physically removes the hazard from the workplace and is the most effective control at the top of the hierarchy.

  2. Which OSHA standard requires employers to develop and implement a written Hazard Communication Program?

    Answer: 29 CFR 1910.1200

    29 CFR 1910.1200 (HazCom Standard) requires employers to maintain a written hazard communication program covering SDSs, labels, and training.

  3. A safety professional calculates the Incidence Rate for an establishment with 200 recordable injuries in a year and 500 employees working 40 hrs/wk for 50 weeks. What is the OSHA recordable incidence rate?

    Answer: 16.0

    OSHA incidence rate = (N × 200,000) / EH = (200 × 200,000) / (500 × 40 × 50) = 40,000,000 / 2,500,000 = 16.0.

  4. Which fire extinguisher class is specifically designed for use on fires involving energized electrical equipment?

    Answer: Class C

    Class C extinguishers use non-conductive agents and are rated for use on fires involving energized electrical equipment.

  5. Under the OSHA PSM standard (29 CFR 1910.119), what is the minimum frequency for conducting a Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) revalidation?

    Answer: Every 5 years

    OSHA PSM requires PHA revalidation at least every five years after the completion of the initial PHA.

  6. The concept of 'fault tree analysis' (FTA) uses which type of logic to model system failures?

    Answer: Boolean logic with AND/OR gates

    FTA uses Boolean AND/OR gates to model combinations of component failures that lead to a top-level undesired event.

  7. Which federal agency enforces the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) governing hazardous waste management?

    Answer: EPA

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) administers and enforces RCRA, which governs the generation, transportation, and disposal of hazardous waste.
