Question 4

Which communication principle requires the receiver to repeat back critical information to confirm accurate understanding during an emergency?

Accepted Answer

Closed-loop communication

Answer

Closed-loop communication requires the receiver to repeat back the message, confirming it was received and understood correctly, reducing errors in high-stress situations.

Question 5

An outdoor chemical plume moving toward the facility

Answer

Shelter-in-place is most effective against outdoor chemical plumes because staying inside a sealed building reduces exposure compared to moving through contaminated outdoor air.
