Q

Reactive Perspective

A

Crisis management, people wait until something happens and then they react to it.

17
Q

Retrospective Perspective

A

Looking back at past events

18
Q

Training and administration
22
Q

How long to keep medical records?

A

23
Q

Two objectives of a PPE program?

A

Protect user from hazardous exposure

prevent injury to the user from PPE misuse of malfunction

24
Q

What are APR’s and when to use and not use?

A

Air-purifying respirator. Don’t use in Oxygen deficiency, IDLH, uncharacteristic confined space

25
What is a SCBA and when to use and not use?
Self- contained breathing apparatus. Use in an Oxygen deficiency atmosphere.
26
What is a protection Factor and how is it used?
It is used to determine the MUC (Maximum use concentration)
27
What are Warning Properties?
Odor, Taste, or irritating effects
28
Levels of protection and difference between levels
Level A-fully enclosed suit with SCBA Level B- suit not fully enclosed with SCBA Level C- Same suit as B with APR Level D
29
What should a written IH plan address?
Hazard Recognition Hazard Evaluation Hazard Control Personnel Training
30
Oxygen deficient atmosphere is?
Less than 19.5%
31
What is penetration, degradation, permeation as it applies to CPC?
Degradation, result of a chemical reaction between contaminant and protective material. Penetration, due to imperfections in design or construction. Permeation, concentration gradient.
32
Criteria for using measurement devices when sampling?
Needs to be accurate and precise.
