Q. 119. Details the NFPA diamond

The NFPA Diamond (also known as the Fire Diamond or Safety Square) is a
standardized labeling system used to quickly and easily identify the risks posed by
hazardous materials.

Here's a breakdown of the NFPA Diamond:

1. Health Hazard: This section indicates the potential health risks associated with the
material. It is rated from 0 (minimal hazard) to 4 (severe hazard).
2. Flammability: This section indicates the ease with which the material can ignite and
burn. It is rated from 0 (non-flammable) to 4 (highly flammable).

3. Reactivity: This section indicates the potential for the material to react violently or
explosively under certain conditions. It is rated from 0 (stable) to 4 (extremely unstable).

4. Special Hazards: This section indicates any specific hazards not covered by the other
three sections. It is denoted by letters that represent various hazards, such as:

 W: Water Reactive
 O: Oxidizer
 COR: Corrosive
 POISON: Poisonous
 BIO: Biological Hazard

Q. 120. What is SDS (safety data sheet)?

SDS stands for Safety Data Sheet. It's a document that provides comprehensive information

reactivity.
 Health hazards: Potential risks to human health, including acute and chronic effects.
 Environmental hazards: How the substance might affect the environment.
 Safe handling and storage practices: Guidelines for how to safely use, store, and
transport the substance.
 Emergency procedures: What to do in case of a spill, fire, or other emergency.

Q. 121. Unsafe act and unsafe condition

Unsafe acts and unsafe conditions are two primary factors that contribute to accidents in
the workplace. Understanding these concepts is crucial for preventing accidents and
ensuring a safe working environment.

Unsafe Acts

Unsafe acts are human behaviors that violate safety procedures.

Examples of unsafe acts include:

 Failing to wear personal protective equipment (PPE): Not wearing


safety glasses, gloves, or other protective gear as required.
 Misusing equipment: Using tools or machinery for purposes they were
not designed for.
 Ignoring warning signs: Disregarding safety signs or signals.
 Working while fatigued or under the influence: Performing tasks when
not alert or mentally focused.
 Taking shortcuts: Deviating from established safety procedures to save
time or effort.

Unsafe Conditions

Unsafe conditions are physical factors in the workplace that can lead to accidents or
injuries.

Examples of unsafe conditions include:

 Defective equipment: Using tools or machinery that are broken or


malfunctioning.
 Slippery floors: Creating hazards that can cause slips, trips, or falls.
 Poor lighting: Making it difficult to see potential hazards.
 Hazardous materials: Improper storage or handling of toxic or flammable
substances.
 Unguarded machinery: Exposed moving parts that can cause injuries.
Q. 122. What is TWA, PEL, STEL?

TWA stands for Time-Weighted Average. It's a measurement used to determine the
