[All SPHR Questions]

How can an employer determine whether a job creates an ergonomic hazard for an employee?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Answer option B is correct.

Although a review and analysis of OSHA logs (C) or workers' compensation records (D) can be used to determine any injury patterns occurring in the workplace, observing the incumbent (B) performing the work is necessary to determine whether there is an ergonomic hazard in the job. An MSDS (A) describes chemical hazards unrelated to ergonomics.

Reviewing workers' compensation records sounds relevant too, especially if there are patterns of injuries related to ergonomics. I think I saw a similar question in practice.

I feel like the MSDS might not directly relate to ergonomic hazards, but it could help with chemical safety? Not sure if it’s the best choice here.

I think observing the incumbent performing the job duties could give a clear picture of any ergonomic hazards. It seems like a practical approach.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. The question mentions both partner relationships and customer community, so I'm not sure if option B or option C would be better. I'll need to think through the specific requirements more carefully.

Hmm, this seems like a straightforward question about Salesforce environments. I'm pretty confident I know the differences between the options, so I'll carefully consider each one.
