The primary goal of occupational health and safety education is to create and maintain a work environment that is free from hazards and risks, thereby protecting the health and safety of workers.

Psychological hazards are not typically considered a common type of workplace hazard. Physical hazards, chemical hazards, and biological hazards are more commonly encountered in the workplace.

The first step in conducting a risk assessment is to identify the hazards present in the workplace. This involves examining the work environment, processes, and equipment to identify potential hazards that could cause harm to workers.

A safety data sheet (SDS) serves multiple purposes. It provides information about the hazards of a chemical substance, instructs workers on how to use it safely, and documents the safe handling and storage of the substance.

Lab coats are not typically considered a common type of personal protective equipment (PPE). Safety glasses, hard hats, and ear plugs are more commonly used as PPE to protect workers from specific hazards.

An occupational health and safety committee plays a crucial role in promoting workplace safety. Its responsibilities include developing and implementing safety policies and procedures, conducting regular safety inspections, and investigating workplace accidents and incidents.

Chemical spills are not typically considered a common type of workplace accident. Slips, trips, and falls, machinery-related accidents, and electrical accidents are more commonly reported types of workplace accidents.

A lockout/tagout procedure is designed to prevent the accidental release of energy during maintenance or repair work by isolating and de-energizing equipment before servicing or cleaning, ensuring that machinery is properly shut down and secured.

An occupational health and safety professional is responsible for ensuring compliance with occupational health and safety regulations, conducting risk assessments and implementing control measures, and providing training and education to workers on safety procedures.

Carpal tunnel syndrome is not typically considered a common type of occupational disease. Asbestos-related diseases, silicosis, and noise-induced hearing loss are more commonly reported occupational diseases.

An emergency response plan outlines the actions to be taken in case of an emergency, assigns responsibilities to employees, and provides contact information for emergency services.

First aid training is not typically considered a common type of workplace safety training. General safety orientation, job-specific safety training, and fire safety training are more commonly provided to workers.

A safety representative represents workers' interests in safety matters, conducts safety inspections and identifies hazards, and investigates workplace accidents and incidents.

Work permits are not typically considered a common type of workplace hazard control measure. Engineering controls, administrative controls, and personal protective equipment (PPE) are more commonly used to control hazards in the workplace.

A job safety analysis (JSA) is used to identify hazards associated with a specific job task, develop safe work procedures for the task, and train workers on how to perform the task safely.
