1. What is safety?

Explanation

Safety is defined as the state of being relatively free from danger, risk, or the threat of harm, injury, or loss to individuals and/or property. This includes protection against intentional or accidental causes. It involves the prevention and safeguarding against various occurrences such as assault, damage, fire, fraud, invasion of privacy, theft, and unlawful entry. Safety is not a myth but rather a concept that encompasses the liability to all types of injury or negative consequences, whether they are immediate and certain or distant and uncertain.

4. Fall protection for ironworkers is generally required at height of:

Explanation

Fall protection for ironworkers is generally required at a height of 15 feet. This is because at this height, there is an increased risk of serious injury or fatality if a worker were to fall. Fall protection measures such as harnesses, safety nets, or guardrails are necessary to prevent falls and protect the workers. At heights below 15 feet, there may still be a risk of injury, but it is generally considered less severe, and fall protection may not be required. At heights above 15 feet, the risk of injury increases significantly, and fall protection becomes mandatory to ensure worker safety.

5. How long is the hard hat good for?

Explanation

The hard hat is good for a period of 5 years. This is likely because hard hats are designed to withstand a certain amount of wear and tear, and after 5 years, they may no longer provide the necessary protection. Additionally, the materials used in hard hats may degrade over time, making them less effective in protecting against impacts or other hazards. It is important to regularly inspect and replace hard hats to ensure the safety of the wearer.
