A door latch on one door and an exit alarm on a separate door are proposed as two features. What is the result?
- a.The pair satisfies it for spas only
- b.The pair satisfies it if both are battery powered
- c.The pair does not satisfy the requirement✓
- d.The pair satisfies the requirement
The Act lists an exit alarm and a door latch on separate doors as not satisfying the requirement. The pair does not qualify for spas only, battery power does not change it, and it does not satisfy the requirement as proposed.Health and Safety Code §115922(b)
Where does the 10-minute cool-down rest every two hours at 95 degrees apply in the heat rule?
- a.To employees in agriculture✓
- b.To all outdoor work above 80 degrees
- c.To all construction workers
- d.To indoor work above 100 degrees
The ten-minute rest at 95 degrees is in the paragraph for employees employed in agriculture. It is not a construction requirement, and the shade threshold is 80 degrees.Title 8 §3395(e)(6)
May a worker take a preventative cool-down rest in the shade before a scheduled break?
- a.Yes, when they feel the need✓
- b.No, shade rests are for agriculture
- c.No, only at scheduled breaks
- d.Yes, after the supervisor approves
Employees shall be allowed and encouraged to take a preventative cool-down rest in the shade when they feel the need, and access to shade is permitted at all times. A schedule, approval or an agriculture limit is not the rule.Title 8 §3395(d)(3)
Who may call for emergency services at a worksite under the high-heat procedures?
- a.The owner of the property only
- b.The building inspector only
- c.Designated employees, or others if none✓
- d.The site supervisor only
High-heat procedures designate one or more employees to call for emergency medical services and allow other employees to call when no designated employee is available. The owner, inspector or supervisor alone is too narrow.Title 8 §3395(e)(3)
What does Title 8 say about employees and loads handled by lifting or digging equipment?
- a.No employee may be permitted underneath them✓
- b.Employees may stand under them for short periods
- c.Employees may stand under them with a spotter
- d.Employees may stand under them with a hard hat
No employee is permitted underneath loads handled by lifting or digging equipment. A hard hat, a short time or a spotter does not make the position safe.Title 8 §1541(e)
Where a hazardous atmosphere may develop during excavation work, what must be readily available?
- a.Rescue equipment such as a harness and line✓
- b.A spare shovel, a tarp and extra stakes
- c.A second battery charger for the radios
- d.A drinking-water cooler on a wheeled stand
Emergency rescue equipment, such as breathing apparatus, a safety harness and line, or a basket stretcher, is readily available where hazardous atmospheric conditions exist or may reasonably be expected to develop. A shovel, a water cooler and a battery charger do not rescue a worker.Title 8 §1541(g)(2)(A)
In one city's checklist, when must a fiberglass pool have its barriers and safety features in place?
- a.Only after the first month of use
- b.At the final inspection, after filling
- c.Before the pool is filled with water✓
- d.Whenever the owner finds it convenient
Fiberglass swimming pools must have all barriers and safety features in place prior to filling in with water. Waiting for the final inspection, a month of use or the owner's convenience leaves a filled pool unprotected.City of Dublin checklist
