Job Hazards (continued)
Biological hazards are living things that can cause sickness or disease.
Examples: Bacteria, viruses, or insects.
Other health hazards are harmful things, not in other categories, that can injure you or make you sick. They are sometimes less obvious because they may not cause health problems right away.
Examples: noise, radiation, repetitive movements, heat, cold, stress.

Making the Job Safer: Key Points

It’s best to get rid of a hazard completely, if possible.
If your employer can’t get rid of the hazard, there are usually many ways to protect you from it.
