Assignment:
You will be a health and safety manager in a company that has a manufacturing facility with multiple occupational hazards. This setting could be a place where you currently work, one that you may be familiar with, or one that you just find interesting. This SLP will address chemical hazards in the workplace:
1.Identify two hazardous chemicals to which workers are exposed in your facility.
2.Explain the routes by which workers can get exposure to these chemicals, and the associated potential health risks.
3.Choose one method to sample for each of these chemicals in the facility. Justify your choice.
4.Consider how the hazards may be controlled and select the best approach, the one that protects workers best.
Assignment Expectations:
Use information from your module readings/articles as well as appropriate research to support your paper.
Length: The SLP assignment should be 3 to 5 pages long (double-spaced).
References: At least three references must be included from academic sources (e.g., peer-reviewed journal articles). Required Reading is included. Quoted materials should not exceed 10% of the total paper (since the focus of these assignments is critical thinking). Use your own words and build on the ideas of others. Materials copied verbatim from external sources must be enclosed in quotation marks. In-text citations are required as well as a list of references at the end of the assignment. (APA format is recommended.)
