SOLUTIONS
HRAC - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Hazard recognition, hazard assessment and hazard
| | | | | | | |
control
|
Hazard Recognition - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-The systematic task of identifying all
| | | | | | | | | |
hazards present or potentially present in a workplace. It's always the first step of
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
any HRAC process.
| |
Hazard Assessment - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Workers and employers which of the
| | | | | | | | |
hazards needs to be addressed most urgently.
| | | | | | |
Hazard Control - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-The process used to establish
| | | | | | | | |
preventative and corrective measures implemented to eliminate or mitigate the
| | | | | | | | | |
effect of the hazard.
| | |
Hierarchy of Controls - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-A system used to control
| | | | | | | | | |
workplace risks. It's a step by step approach to eliminating or reducing risks
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
ranking from most effective to least.
| | | | |
Five Controls in Hierarchy of Controls - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-1. Elimination
| | | | | | | | |
2. Substitution
| |
3. Engineering Controls
| | |
, 4. Administrative Controls
| | |
5. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
| | | |
Elimination - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Removes the hazard from the worksite
| | | | | | | |
Substitution - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Replaces something that produces a hazard
| | | | | | | | |
with something that does not.
| | | |
Engineering Controls - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Modifications to the workplace,
| | | | | | | |
equipment, materials or work processes that reduces workers exposure to
| | | | | | | | | |
hazards.
Administrative Controls - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Changes to work process,

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Equipment worn by
| | | | | | | |
workers designed to protect them if they come in contact with hazard.
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Physical Hazards - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Noise and vibration, temperature,
| | | | | | | |
radiation and ergonomics. | |
When is noise harmful to workers? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Three characteristics
| | | | | | | | | |
affect when noise becomes a hazard: frequency, duration and loudness. Noise can
| | | | | | | | | | |
lead to permanent hearing loss.
