Physical hazards refer to environmental factors that can cause harm or injury to individuals. These hazards can include things like slips, trips, and falls, as well as exposure to extreme temperatures, noise, or radiation. They are often present in workplaces, construction sites, and even at home, making it essential to identify and mitigate these risks to ensure safety. Common examples of physical hazards include sharp objects, heavy machinery, and electrical equipment. Proper safety measures, such as using personal protective equipment (PPE) and following safety protocols, can help reduce the likelihood of accidents and injuries related to these hazards.
