    The ____ authority will be able to provide advice and guidance with regards to Health and Safety Legislation.

    • National

    • International

    • Local

    Correct Answer
    A. Local
    Explanation
    The local authority will be able to provide advice and guidance with regards to Health and Safety Legislation. This is because local authorities are responsible for enforcing and implementing health and safety regulations within their jurisdiction. They have a good understanding of the specific laws and regulations that apply to the local area and can provide tailored advice and guidance to businesses and individuals operating within that area. National and international authorities may also have information on health and safety legislation, but they may not have the same level of knowledge and familiarity with the local regulations.

    A good rule of thumb is to use slow and very deliberate movements around animals.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Using slow and deliberate movements around animals is a good rule of thumb because it helps to avoid startling or agitating them. Animals can be easily frightened by sudden or fast movements, which can lead to defensive or aggressive behavior. By moving slowly and deliberately, we give animals the opportunity to observe and assess our presence, reducing the likelihood of them feeling threatened. This approach also allows us to be more mindful and respectful of their space and boundaries.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is to keep a mobile phone with you at all times, carry a personal and business I.D. with you at all times, make sure someone else knows where you are at all times, and carry keys with you at all times during the visit. These safety tips are important to ensure personal safety and security. Having a mobile phone allows you to contact someone in case of an emergency. Carrying a personal and business I.D. helps to identify yourself and your purpose. Letting someone else know your whereabouts ensures that someone can help you if needed. Carrying keys with you during the visit ensures that you have access to the necessary areas and can leave if necessary.

  • 6. 

    Zoonosis is a disease transmitted from humans to animals.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Zoonosis is a disease that can be transmitted from animals to humans, not the other way around. It occurs when a pathogen, such as a virus or bacteria, is transmitted from an animal to a human, causing illness. Examples of zoonotic diseases include rabies, Lyme disease, and bird flu. It is important to note that not all diseases can be transmitted between humans and animals, and the transmission usually occurs through direct contact with infected animals or their bodily fluids. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    The animal’s welfare is the most important safety responsibility that you have.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement "The animal's welfare is the most important safety responsibility that you have" is false. While animal welfare is important, it is not the most important safety responsibility. The safety of both the animal and the person should be equally prioritized. Safety measures such as proper handling techniques, secure enclosures, and following safety protocols are crucial to ensure the well-being of both the animal and the person involved.
