Which of the following would often be subject to health and safety legislation?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, B, C, D

All answers are correct. Each of these areas can create safety hazards for people in the workplace, and so in many countries government legislation has been passed to make these topics subject to regulation.

For example, within the UK, it is mandatory for employers to provide compulsory training for em-ployees who may be involved in lifting heavy items, and there are limits placed on the weight which can be handled by any one person. In many cases, mechanised lifting equipment is used to aid or replace humans.

Floors, passages, and stairs being properly constructed and maintained? Sounds like a recipe for a lawsuit if they're not. Good call on that one.

I'd say the manual lifting of heavy objects is the most obvious one here. Can't have people throwing their backs out on the job!
