  1. When using a Safety Data Sheet, which section contains first-aid measures for exposure to a hazardous chemical?

    Answer: Section 4

    GHS-formatted SDSs place first-aid measures in Section 4, covering routes of exposure such as inhalation, skin contact, eye contact, and ingestion.

  2. A CPT candidate must understand OSHA's General Duty Clause. Which statement best describes it?

    Answer: Employers must provide a workplace free from recognized hazards likely to cause death or serious physical harm

    Section 5(a)(1) of the OSH Act, the General Duty Clause, requires employers to address recognized hazards even when no specific OSHA standard exists.

  3. What is the correct sequence for using the PASS technique when operating a fire extinguisher?

    Answer: Pull, Aim, Squeeze, Sweep

    PASS stands for Pull the pin, Aim at the base of the fire, Squeeze the handle, and Sweep side to side.

  4. Under OSHA's Respiratory Protection Standard (29 CFR 1910.134), before an employee uses a respirator, the employer must ensure the employee has undergone:

    Answer: A medical evaluation to determine fitness to wear a respirator

    OSHA requires a medical evaluation before an employee is fit-tested or uses a respirator because respirator use can place physical demands on the cardiovascular system.

  5. Which color coding is most commonly used in manufacturing facilities to mark physical hazards such as stumbling and tripping hazards on the floor?

    Answer: Yellow

    OSHA and ANSI guidelines use yellow to indicate caution and physical hazards like floor marking for tripping risks, low beams, and aisle borders.

  6. How often must OSHA 300 Log summaries (Form 300A) be posted in the workplace?

    Employers must post the OSHA 300A summary form from February 1 through April 30 each year, summarizing the prior year's recordable injuries and illnesses.

  7. A production technician is asked to work with a chemical not previously used in the facility. What must the employer provide BEFORE the employee begins working with it?

    Answer: Safety Data Sheet, container label, and hazard communication training

    HazCom requires that employees receive training, access to the SDS, and proper labeling before initial assignment to work with any new hazardous chemical.
