What are examples of hazards?
Workplace hazards also include practices or conditions that release uncontrolled
energy like:
an object that could fall from a height (potential or gravitational energy),
a run-away chemical reaction (chemical energy),
the release of compressed gas or steam (pressure; high temperature),
entanglement of hair or clothing in rotating equipment (kinetic energy), or
contact with electrodes of a battery or capacitor (electrical energy)
What Are the Most Common Hazards in a Workplace?
Biological. Biological hazards include viruses, bacteria, insects, animals, etc., that
can cause adverse health impacts. For example, mould, blood and other bodily fluids,
