  1. When inspecting a warehouse and you notice liquid spilled on the floor with no wet floor signs posted, which hazard category does this fall under?

    Answer: Safety hazard (slip/trip/fall)

    Uncontrolled liquid spills create slip, trip, and fall hazards, which are classified under safety hazards.

  2. A risk assessment determines that a hazard has a 'critical' severity rating. Which action is most appropriate?

    Answer: Implement immediate interim controls while developing permanent controls

    Critical severity hazards require immediate interim controls to protect workers while permanent engineering or elimination solutions are developed.

  3. Which OSHA General Duty Clause obligation applies to ALL employers regardless of specific standards?

    Answer: Furnish a workplace free from recognized hazards likely to cause death or serious harm

    Section 5(a)(1) of the OSH Act (General Duty Clause) requires every employer to provide a workplace free from recognized serious hazards even when no specific standard applies.

  4. During hazard identification, 'change analysis' is used to evaluate:

    Answer: New or modified processes, equipment, or materials for introduced hazards

    Change analysis (or Management of Change) systematically reviews modifications to processes, equipment, or chemicals to identify new hazards before implementation.

  5. Which statement best describes 'residual risk'?

    Answer: Risk that remains after all feasible controls have been implemented

    Residual risk is the level of risk that remains after all practicable control measures have been put in place.

  6. A supervisor asks workers to identify hazards on their own before starting a new task. This practice is called:

    Answer: Pre-task hazard assessment

    A pre-task hazard assessment (also called a pre-job hazard analysis or take-five) is a worker-led evaluation of hazards before beginning work.

  7. Which regulatory body sets permissible exposure limits (PELs) for chemical hazards in US workplaces?

    Answer: OSHA

    OSHA establishes and enforces Permissible Exposure Limits (PELs) for chemical hazards under 29 CFR 1910.1000 and substance-specific standards.
