- C.
  
  Both are correct
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
C. Both are correct

Explanation
The correct answer is that both statements are correct. The definition of isolation by LOTO (Lockout/Tagout) includes both the separation of equipment from sources of hazardous energy or material and the use of a method that requires a conscious and deliberate act to restore the connection. This ensures that the equipment is effectively isolated and prevents any accidental or unauthorized reconnection.

No license is required for LPG filling and possession, if
- A.
  
  Total quantity of gas does not exceed 1000 kg at a time
- B.
  
  Total quantity of gas does not exceed 250 kg at a time
- C.
  
  Total quantity of gas does not exceed 100 kg at a time
- D.
  
  Total quantity of gas does not exceed 2500 kg at a time
Correct Answer
C. Total quantity of gas does not exceed 100 kg at a time

Explanation
No license is required for LPG filling and possession if the total quantity of gas does not exceed 100 kg at a time. This means that individuals or businesses can freely fill and possess LPG without the need for a license as long as the quantity does not exceed this limit. It is important to note that this regulation may vary in different jurisdictions, so it is always advisable to check the specific rules and regulations in the relevant area.

All injuries and occupational illnesses are
- A.
  
  Inevitable
- B.
  
  Preventable
- C.
  
  Acceptable
- D.
  
  All the above
Correct Answer
B. Preventable

Explanation
The correct answer is "Preventable" because injuries and occupational illnesses can be avoided or reduced by implementing proper safety measures, providing training and education to employees, and promoting a culture of safety in the workplace. While it may not be possible to completely eliminate all risks, proactive measures can significantly reduce the likelihood of injuries and illnesses occurring. Therefore, it is important to prioritize prevention strategies to ensure the well-being and safety of workers.

The operator shall not pick up a load through a hoist in excess of
- A.
  
  85% of its SWL
- B.
  
  75% of its SWL.
- C.
  
  90% of its SWL.
- D.
  
  100% its SWL.
Correct Answer
A. 85% of its SWL

Explanation
The correct answer is 85% of its SWL. This means that the operator should not pick up a load through a hoist that exceeds 85% of its Safe Working Load (SWL). This is important because exceeding the SWL can put excessive stress on the hoist and potentially cause it to fail, leading to accidents and injuries. By adhering to this limit, the operator ensures the safe and efficient operation of the hoist while also protecting themselves and others from potential harm.

Which is the most preferred hazard control method for the best practice of safety?
- A.
  
  Substitution
- B.
  
  Administrative controls
- C.
  
  Engineering controls
- D.
  
  Wearing PPE
Correct Answer
A. Substitution

Explanation
Substitution is the most preferred hazard control method for the best practice of safety because it involves replacing a hazardous substance, process, or equipment with a less hazardous alternative. This method eliminates or reduces the risk at its source, making it the most effective way to control hazards. By substituting a hazardous material with a safer one or replacing a hazardous process with a safer one, the overall risk to workers' health and safety is significantly reduced. This approach prioritizes prevention and long-term risk reduction, making it the preferred method for ensuring safety in the workplace.

Rate this question:
6.

________ is/are Pro active component/s to work safely
- A.
  
  Reporting accidents
- B.
  
  Recommendation for incidents
- C.
  
  PPE
- D.
  
  Assessing exposure risks
Correct Answer
D. Assessing exposure risks

Explanation
Assessing exposure risks is a proactive component to work safely because it involves identifying and evaluating potential hazards and risks in the work environment. By assessing exposure risks, employers can implement appropriate control measures to minimize or eliminate the risks, ensuring the safety and well-being of workers. This proactive approach helps prevent accidents and incidents before they occur, promoting a safe working environment. Reporting accidents, recommending incidents, and using personal protective equipment (PPE) are also important safety measures, but they are reactive rather than proactive in nature.

In TML every regular shop floor activity shall be risk assessed using
- A.
  
  HAZCOM
- B.
  
  HIRA
- C.
  
  HAZOP
- D.
  
  JSA
Correct Answer
B. HIRA

Explanation
HIRA stands for Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment. In TML (presumably referring to a specific organization or industry), it is required to conduct risk assessments for every regular shop floor activity. HIRA involves identifying potential hazards, evaluating the associated risks, and implementing appropriate control measures to mitigate those risks. This process helps ensure the safety of workers and minimize the likelihood of accidents or incidents occurring in the workplace.

HIPO means
- A.
  
  High Incident Potential Occurrence
- B.
  
  High Potential Incident
- C.
  
  Highest Incident Process Organization
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
B. High Potential Incident

Explanation
HIPO stands for High Potential Incident. This term is commonly used in safety management to refer to incidents or situations that have a high potential for causing harm or damage. It is important to identify and address high potential incidents in order to prevent accidents and ensure the safety of individuals and the organization.

Oxygen cylinders must be stored away from highly flammable material by
- A.
  
  100 feet
- B.
  
  20 feet
- C.
  
  A steel wall
- D.
  
  80 feet
Correct Answer
B. 20 feet

Explanation
Oxygen cylinders must be stored away from highly flammable material by at least 20 feet to ensure safety. This distance helps to minimize the risk of fire or explosion in case of a leak or accidental release of oxygen. Storing the cylinders at a safe distance reduces the chances of ignition and allows for better ventilation, reducing the concentration of oxygen in the surrounding area.

10.

The maximum temperature in which any gas cylinders can be used or stored
- A.
  
  70 degree F
- B.
  
  100 degree F
- C.
  
  125 degree F
- D.
  
  150 degree F
Correct Answer
C. 125 degree F

Explanation
The correct answer is 125 degree F. This is the maximum temperature at which any gas cylinders can be used or stored. Exceeding this temperature can lead to the risk of explosion or leakage of the gas, which can be hazardous. Therefore, it is important to ensure that gas cylinders are stored and used within the specified temperature limits to maintain safety.

OSHA recommends evacuation warden for every
- A.
  
  10 employee
- B.
  
  20 employee
- C.
  
  50 employee
- D.
  
  100 employee
Correct Answer
B. 20 employee

Explanation
OSHA recommends having an evacuation warden for every 20 employees. This means that for every 20 individuals in a workplace, there should be a designated person responsible for ensuring the safe evacuation of employees in case of an emergency. Having an evacuation warden helps to ensure that there is someone trained and prepared to guide and assist employees during evacuations, increasing the overall safety and effectiveness of emergency procedures.

- D.
  
  Feel sorry for the person
Correct Answer
C. Talk to your supervisor and make sure it is getting reported

Explanation
If you see an accident at work, it is important to talk to your supervisor and ensure that it is getting reported. This is the correct answer because reporting the accident is crucial for the safety of the person involved and for the overall well-being of everyone in the workplace. Ignoring it or feeling sorry for the person may not address the immediate concerns and could potentially lead to further issues. Therefore, it is necessary to inform the supervisor so that appropriate action can be taken.
