EG 101 Exam 1 ACTUAL UPDATED QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
Lockout Tagout The process of physically locking a piece of equipment and placing a tag on it to
state that it is being worked on and is not to be tampered with. It must be
recorded in a log and only the person who initiates the lockout tagout can
remove it.
Causes of most accidents Human error; costly to employee and employer
Three "I"s of accidents Inexperience (lack of understanding)
Indifference (attitude towards equipment and the job)
Inattention/Carelessness (overconfident and overlooking the obvious
Code Minimum safe practice requirement
Standard Accepted reference or practice
Fire safety Procedures to reduce hazards, training for all employees, smoke and CO
detectors, sprinkler systems, fire exit plans, assessment of hazardous materials
Electrical safety Lockout tagout, no wet or sweaty clothes, rubber soled shoes, work with one
hand (right hand), ensure breakers are turned off and the lines you're working on
aren't hot, don't stand in a puddle, etc.
HAZMAT Safety Chemical container labeling, employee training, safety data sheets (SDS; chemical
procedures for each chemical used)
Safety Data Sheets Contain information, precautions, and practices for handling hazardous materials,
including PPE to wear and how to clean up a spill
PPE personal protective equipment: ear protection, eye, foot, head, skin (cotton
clothes that cover your body and also will not set you on fire), respiratory
Ear protection Required for 85 dB for 8 or more hours; exponential growth; may be required to
double protect in some areas
Heat stress The inability of the body to cope with the effects of a high temperature and a high
humidity enviornment
Heat cramps Muscle contractions or spasms caused by loss of body fluids through swearing or
drinking cold liquids too fast
, Heat exhaustion Occurs with work/exercise in hot environments and the sweating mechanism is
overloaded and can't cope with the heat
Heatstroke The sweating mechanism breaks down completely and the body can't get rid of
excess body heat, causing failure of the brain, kidneys, and liver
Enclosed Space Entry Permit Required before entry into an enclosed space; the atmosphere needs to be
tested to ensure that no hazardous vapors are present and there is enough
oxygen to sustain life. Properly ventilate and have someone standing outside with
communication.
Red lockout tagout Danger
Yellow lockout tagout Caution
Orange lockout tagout Out of calibration
Red lockout tagout (solid red) Out of commission
Double Valve protection Never rely on a single valve isolation when piping with hazardous materials, high
envergy, or potential to flood. You should be able to close 2 valves
Hot work permit Permit issued to authorize work using an open flame or spark producing. Includes
welding, cutting, burning, grinding, etc.
Working Aloft permit A permit issued for you to work suspended, in the air, from a harness, whatever.
Operational Risk Management (ORM) Used to identify operational risks and benefits and determine the best course of
action.
1. Identify hazards
2. Hazard assessment
3. Make risk decisions
4. Implement controls
5. supervise
Accident prevention Training, adequate rest, cleanliness and stowage, communication, engaged
leadership
Level of electrical shock to die from 0.1 amp can cause heart failure in one second
Hazardous material Any substance that could cause injury to personnel or the environment
Ship safety procedure examp,les Chief Engineer standing orders, watch duties, PPE requirements, emergency
procedures, safety procedure for loading and unloading flammable or toxic
cargo
HSEQ Health, safety, environment quality management systems
