Work-related hazards

Work-related hazards can be:
i. physical (e.g., radiation, temperature extremes, constant loud noise, spills on floors or tripping hazards, unguarded machinery, faulty electrical equipment);
ii. ergonomic (e.g., improperly adjusted workstations and chairs, awkward movements, vibration);
iii. chemical (e.g., exposure to carcinogens, mutagens, reprotoxic substances, solvents, carbon monoxide, or pesticides);
iv. biological (e.g., exposure to blood and bodily fluids, fungi, bacteria, viruses, or insect bites);
v. psychosocial (e.g., verbal abuse, harassment, bullying);
vi. related to work-organisation (e.g., excessive workload demands, shift work, long hours, night work, workplace violence).
