Discussion

1. Compare and contrast the strengths and weaknesses of the engineering and analytical approaches to hazard avoidance. Be specific and provide at least four examples in your response.

2. During a recent worksite inspection, you identified a serious hazard and recommend that it be corrected immediately. The maintenance supervisor says he fixes things in the order received, and your order goes to the bottom of the list. Discuss some possible methods for helping the maintenance supervisor understand why he or she may need to change his or her prioritization system.

Your response should be at least 250 words in length. You are required to use at least your textbook as source material for your response. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations.
