Assignment:
TRUE or FALSE?
1. An employee develops carpal tunnel syndrome from her home work station. She has permission from the company, who employs 200 + people, to work from home. She eventually has surgery on both forearms. This would be work related, because she was hired by the company to work from home and they still had the responsibility to provide her with a safety and healthy work environment.
2. An employee throws his back out while reaching for his lunch in the company-provided lunchroom. This is an example of personal care, is not work related, and thus is not recordable on the OSHA log
3. A CSHO does not need to follow a company's PPE regulations during an inspection because he or she will always bring along his or her own PPE.
