The best way to handle a heavy or bulky load is:

  Strengthen your abdominal muscles
- B.
  
  Do not bend over to pick up heavy objects
- C.

- D.
  
  All of the above
- E.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
C. Lift with your legs and not back

Explanation
Lifting with your legs and not your back is the best way to handle a heavy or bulky load because it helps to distribute the weight evenly and reduces strain on the back muscles. Strengthening your abdominal muscles can also be helpful in providing support, but it is not the most effective method on its own. Bending over to pick up heavy objects can put excessive pressure on the back and increase the risk of injury. Therefore, the correct answer is to lift with your legs and not your back.

- A.
  
  A while
- B.
  
  5 seconds
- C.
  
  20 seconds
- D.
  
  One minute
Correct Answer
C. 20 seconds

Explanation
The correct answer is 20 seconds. Washing hands with warm water and soap for at least 20 seconds is recommended to effectively remove dirt, germs, and bacteria. This duration allows enough time for the soap to create a lather and for thorough scrubbing of all areas of the hands, including between the fingers, under the nails, and the wrists. It is an important practice to maintain good hand hygiene and prevent the spread of infections.

Universal precautions means: Use precautions for blood and body fluids of all persons.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Universal precautions refer to the practice of using precautions for blood and body fluids of all individuals, regardless of their perceived infection status. This approach is crucial in preventing the transmission of bloodborne pathogens and other infectious diseases. By assuming that all bodily fluids are potentially infectious, healthcare professionals can protect themselves and others from potential exposure and ensure a safe working environment. Therefore, the given answer, "True," accurately reflects the definition of universal precautions.

- B.
  
  Are a nuisance, and not required by policy
- C.
  
  Are required for highway driving only
- D.
  
  Are required by law any time the car is in gear
Correct Answer
D. Are required by law any time the car is in gear

Explanation
Seat belts are required by law any time the car is in gear. This means that it is mandatory for drivers and passengers to wear seat belts whenever the vehicle is in motion. This law is in place to ensure the safety of individuals in the event of an accident or sudden stop. Seat belts are designed to restrain occupants and prevent them from being thrown forward or out of the vehicle, reducing the risk of injury or fatality. Therefore, it is crucial to wear seat belts at all times while driving.
