STATEMENTS RELATED TO THE STUDY
A hazard is any source of potential damage, harm or adverse health effects on something or
someone. Risk is the chance that a hazard will cause harm. Hazard identification process
involves identifying both existing and potential workplace hazards, assessing the risks,
determining and implementing the controls, and reviewing hazards.

JOB HAZARDS IN SCHOOLS Many hazards on the job are obvious, like sharp objects, slippery floors, and hot liquids.
Other hazards, such as repetitive movements and chemicals, may be hidden. Sometimes it is
