OSHA 30 Hour Construction Program Practice Test

Which major element is NOT a part of a comprehensive safety program?

1. Worksite analysis

2. Training and education

3. Employee performance evaluation

4. Hazard prevention and control

The correct answer is: Employee performance evaluation

A comprehensive safety program typically comprises key elements that focus on identifying and mitigating risks, educating employees, and maintaining safety standards on worksites. Worksite analysis involves identifying potential hazards on the job site and evaluating the effectiveness of current safety measures. Training and education ensure workers understand safety protocols, proper equipment usage, and emergency response procedures. Hazard prevention and control focuses on implementing strategies to eliminate or reduce risks associated with workplace hazards. While evaluating employee performance is important for an overall management program, it is not a specific major element of a comprehensive safety program focused on health and safety protocols. The primary aim of a safety program is to create a safe work environment, which is achieved through the other components rather than evaluating individual employee performance.
